Tip 33 - User Management

Tip 33 - User Management



When you're managing a large team, you tend to add many users to it. Assigning these users to multiple projects and sprints is taxing after a point. Here are some tricks that would simplify this process.
 
The All Users section under Manage Users in Setup is an overview of all the users present in your team.When you click a user's profile, you will see details such as work done by the user, the projects they're a part of, etc.
 
You can assign users to specific projects when you add them to your team.


 
If you would like to add the new users to all the projects in the team or just add them to sprints in the associated project, you can enable the respective check boxes while setting up their profiles.


 
You can also assign users to sprints while adding them at the project level.


 
We hope this article helps you with hassle-free user management. If you have any questions, do drop them in the comment section. We'd be more than happy to assist you.

            Continuing from our Tip #2 on leading to a sprint, let's see how to manage the work items on the Scrum board.  Once you start the sprint your work items are automatically displayed on the Scrum board where you will actually manage the work items. It is a snapshot of the backlog items identified for the current sprint.    The layout of the Scrum board Simply put, the scrum board is just like a physical board with sticky notes on which the work items of the active sprint are displayed.  The scrum board

          • Tip #1- Why swimlanes?

            Lanes define a clear path to reach your destination. In Agile, swimlane is one such concept that sets a simple and clear process of the work that you do.   The concept of swimlane can be related to the pool, where the swimmers gather in their respective lanes to start off. Similar to the pool, work items are grouped in different categories. Each category is referred as a lane and is displayed in horizontal format. Swimlanes are effective in categorizing the work items with respective to specific

                                    I am evaluating Zoho Creator. However, I am seeing almost no layout control on a form.  Just a basic 1 or 2 column format that is then imposed on the entire form.  That's not going to work for many, many real world cases. We need multiple columns per line, and we need each line/section to occupy a single column or be able to span the columns.   Someone please tell me that I'm missing something and the capability is actually there.
