Task Kanban View | Online Help | Zoho Projects

Task Kanban View

Kanban cards are a visual representation of activities. The tasks are displayed as cards for easy viewing by status, task list, priority, or percentage. Users can update status, task list, priority, or percentage completion based on the Kanban board. Each Kanban card displays task ID, title, assignees, end date, priority, timer, and comments. Users can customize and remove unnecessary information from the card.

Quickly add, move, clone, and edit tasks, as well as customize the columns. The Kanban interface allows task reordering, subtask management, and bulk updates, enhancing efficiency in project workflows.
