How to manage project tasks on the board

It helps to see a project's tasks in one place: what is in progress, what is waiting on the client, what is overdue. In ArchiBoard tasks live on a board in «Phases & schedule». You can move them between statuses, group them by role and stage, or view them on a Gantt chart.

  1. 1

    Open the board

    Open the project → «Phases & schedule». In the «Mode» switch, choose «Board». «Timeline» shows the same tasks on a Gantt chart.

  2. 2

    Create a task

    Click «Add task». Fill in the «Title» and, if needed, «Description», «Role», «Assignee», «Room» and «Phase».

  3. 3

    Set the deadline

    Enter a «Deadline» as a date or a «Duration (work days)». ArchiBoard works out the deadline, skipping weekends.

  4. 4

    Move tasks between statuses

    Drag a card to another column to change its status. To edit a task, click «Edit».

  5. 5

    Group and filter

    In «Grouping», choose «By status», «By role» or «By phase». The «Role» and «Room» filters leave only the tasks you need.

Good to know

  • ArchiBoard's automatic tasks also appear on the board and close themselves once the step is done.
  • Overdue tasks are marked «Overdue».
  • You can create a task for an item straight from the estimate row.
