Overview
This article describes how to use the Kanban board feature from the Iteration Planner.
The Kanban board in FogBugz is useful for visualizing which cases are being actively worked and how far along in the development process they are.
Information
Accessing the Kanban Board
To access the Kanban board for any milestone, open the Iteration Planner and click on the Kanban drill-down button displayed on the desired milestone’s column:
Using the Kanban Board
Once you are looking at the Kanban view, you can easily create Kanban columns and drag cases from one column to another. Kanban columns exist on a pre-planned basis, but they can be added, subtracted, or re-ordered separately for each milestone’s Kanban board.
There is also a handy Planned Cases column which holds all cases in this milestone which have not yet been put into a Kanban column.
The Kanban board inherits projects from its parent planner. Since it drills down into a single milestone, it will only showcase projects that exist in the planner to which that milestone belongs.
For further details about how planners are configured, please refer to the Getting Started section of the About Iteration Planner article.
Clicking on the Add (+) the Kanban Column
The cards visible on the Kanban Board can be filtered in the case list page using the Search Axes feature. In particular, cards can be filtered on the “Kanban” axis. For example, searching for Kanban: ”To-do” will create a filter of cases in the “To-do” Kanban column.
