Outlook editions
With Kanban Task Manager workgroups can cooperate on tasks and projects in a kanban board in Outlook. The add-in can be used stand-alone, but the Outlook workgroup edition can also synchronize with both Kanban Task Manager SharePoint editions.
By default each Outlook task is shown as a color coded card on a kanban board with phases for the work process. Lanes for different kinds of tasks may also be used.
The cards can be filtered in various ways, and they can be dragged to another phase or lane and dropped there. New tasks can be created in the kanban view, and existing tasks can be opened and edited.
Month View
The Month View is a new view that can be reached from the kanban board. It gives a good overview of when tasks are planned to start and end. The Month View is displayed either as a calendar or as a timeline, where tasks can be grouped in various ways.
Project View
In the Project View each project is visualized in the form of a pie chart. With this new view, managers and team leaders can quickly see how many tasks there are in each phase of each project. Only phases that have tasks for the specific project are shown.
When a task on the kanban board is overdue, it is indicated with a red left border.
Phase Columns
To allow users with few phases and big screens to use their horizontal space better, we have added a possibility to use more than one column of tasks in the same phase.
In the image below there are many incoming tasks waiting to be moved through the phases. Therefore the "Not Started" phase has been set to show the tasks in two columns.
