Planning Board

usage

Every project has it’s own visual Planner (also commonly known as a Planning Board).

image

The Planner allows visual, drag-drop amendments of items that are represented by yellow boxes.

image

Controlling Content

The amount of content displayed by the Planner is directly linked and controlled by the Item Filter. Simply amend the filter and click the View button to see the items you care about on the Planner.

image

Axis

The axis on the left and top can be changed to display data from a variety of different axis values that represent key item attributes:

  • Type
  • Priority
  • Severity
  • Resource
  • Component
  • Start Date
  • Due Data
  • Fixed In Version
  • Status
  • Resolution

You can set both top and left axis as required but certain combinations of axis values may not be available.

image

Controlling Depth and Breadth

When an axis is set to Type you will see all the available item types represented as columns on the Planner.

image

You can control depth/breadth of rows and columns by adjusting the filter as required.

image

Drag-Drop

Every item is represented by a Card that can be drag dropped as required.

image

The Bench

The Bench sits at the bottom of the Planner and contains un-scheduled or un-resourced items. You can bring these items into play by drag drop.

 

image

 

Interactive Cards

Each card (item) on the Planner has a dropdown menu that allows time estimates, time entries and comments to be added quickly.

image

The progress bar can also be update on the card to reflect current work progress.
