As the title indicates, I could use a Kanban view of my Tasks across my Projects. If it's there, I don't see it. If it isn't there, I'd like to submit this as a feature request. Thx.

An update would be appreciated. In the meantime we're considering alternative project management solutions due to the need for this feature and the lack of information from Zoho.

Folks,

We are almost there!! Our team is just fine-tuning the Kanban - Status view for tasks across all projects functionality and it will be available by the end of this month or early next month. We will keep you posted.

Thanks
Monica

Hey, Folks!

Today, we are happy and excited to announce an enhancement that many of you have been waiting for in the Kanban view of Tasks. 

Yay!!! You can now play around the tasks from one Status board to another across multiple projects.





And not just that! The subtasks can also be seen from the Kanban - Status view across all the projects.





For more information, here is the link. 


Just look at how the new changes are and share your feedback with us.

Cheers
Monica

Monica is this status/Kanban feature available on mobile or tablet or just desktop at present please ?

Monica, would it be possible to sort this by User? So its an easier view of how many tasks are assigned to each user.

Thanks!

@Monica, that is great news!

Yes! Kind of excited to check this out. Thanks Monica!

If you have projects with different custom statuses it's useless. You can only collapse statuses, you can't filter them out. So Kanban across projects results in multiple dozens of lanes with no coherence.

  • 3 years ago

I understand John's point. We took the time to re-standardize our statuses so that we have the same ones across all projects. It was a bit painful but in the end, I think a multi-project Kanban board works best if statuses are shared across participating projects.

We are disappointed, however, with the implementation of sub-tasks on the Kanban board. If a sub-task is not started, or is complete - but the parent task is in progress; Zoho's design shows the sub-tasks in different columns with no association with the parent. If the sub-tasks does not have the same owner as the parent, it is also separated.  The end result is hopelessly confusing. Sub-Tasks must remain associated with their parent task on the Kanban board.  They should appear with the parent whether or not their owner is the same, or their status is the same.   @Monica - can you provide this feedback for consideration please?

Tim,

I would like to explain the Kanban board, its design and functionality in detail with you to have better understanding. I will get in touch with you via email to take it forward.

Thanks
Monica

@kazoo60 if Zoho is able to explain why separating sub-tasks from their parent task when updating statuses is a good idea I'd love to hear it.

Is there anyway to also show tasks that are from Zoho sprints? to get a complete view of all tasks across both Project and Sprints?

  • 3 years ago

Krzys,

Certainly. Upon integrating Zoho Projects with Zoho Sprints, the tasks created from Zoho Projects and the tasks created and synced from Zoho Sprints can be viewed under the Kanban view of tasks.

@ Kari, 

would it be possible to sort this by User? So its an easier view of how many tasks are assigned to each user. 

Using 'Filter', you can select the required users/teams and view their tasks under Kanban and other views of tasks. In addition to this, Tasks Custom View allows you to save the filtered options and add them to your favourites.

Thank you for that solution! I did try this and it's not exactly what I'm looking for. First, you can only select up to 30 users and we have way more in our system. Second, it is still sorting the tasks by "status", "percentage", or "priority". It love to see it sorted by user so you can get a quick glance at all the tasks assigned to a specific user. 

I know this is an option in workload report to see tasks assigned to users, but I prefer the Kanban view (very easy to digest the information), and wish that was an option.

Hi Monica! Just checking in if this would be possible to add?

Kari, 

In Zoho Projects, the tasks can be assigned to multiple owners. Displaying the Kanban board based on the 'Owner' category would not be feasible to show the same task under different owners/boards. We will look over your suggestion and consider it for future enhancement.
