Issue Kanban View | Online Help | Zoho Projects

Issue Kanban View

Kanban cards are an easy and dynamic way to visualize your issue workflow. In the Kanban view, issues are arranged on Kanban boards, with each board representing either Status (the default and custom status created for the issue), Severity (the severity of the issue), Module (the module the issue belongs to), Classification (the type of issue), or Reproducible (whether the issue is reproducible or not), so that every team member knows what’s required to be done at any time.
 
Benefits:
  1. Visualize workflows using Kanban cards
  2. Reorder issues workflow
  3. Use color codes to identify different status
  4. Drag and drop issues from one status to another (if the workflow is defined)
