Efficient task management is in the cards #

LiquidPlanner Board Views tell you what’s in progress, where work has stalled, what’s done, and what’s left to do by grouping each task by status.

Members, Groups, Projects, and Packages all have Board views. Moving a task card to another column updates task status and scheduling.

Teams get the most out of this view when they customize Task Status to model their workflow and processes. Org Admins and Workspace Managers go to Administration in the left-side navigation to customize Task Status. See the Customize Task Status lesson to learn more about adding your own custom task statuses.

Cards and columns #

Task hours logged and the hours remaining are displayed next to the clock icon.

Member Board #

Go to My Work in the left-side navigation to find your own board. Task cards display on a member board when there are active assignments for that person on the task. Member board allows you to choose the number of tasks to display.

Use Member boards to manage your own tasks, or to view someone else’s tasks by status. When viewing someone else’s board you’ll only see projects and tasks you have permission to access.

Org Admins and Workspace Managers can go to People and select a person to go to their board.
