How to customise Kanban columns

Kanban columns are a way of organising and viewing the jobs that exist within the firm. To keep the board at a manageable level, each view needs to be structured in a way that the board does not consist of too many jobs. The firm should limit the number of columns available to users. 


A Kanban column view looks like this.



The system comes with six in-built Kanban columns:


  • Not Started
  • On Hold
  • In Progress
  • Awaiting Review
  • Out to Client
  • Complete


And, each one is attached to a default Job Status and may have it's own background colour. A Kanban column could have a number of Job Statuses attached to the one column to keep the system manageable. 


Once a column has been completed, you can go to Job Status to edit the Statuses attached to the Kanban column.
