Kanban
The Kanban tab is your visual action board. It displays all actions from your accessible plans and committees, organized into status columns that you can manage with drag-and-drop.
Status Columns
The Kanban board has four columns representing the action lifecycle:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Pending | New actions not yet started (default for new actions) |
| In Progress | Actions currently being worked on |
| Blocked | Actions waiting on a dependency or external input |
| Completed | Finished actions |
Moving Actions
Drag and drop an action card from one column to another to update its status. For example, drag an action from “Pending” to “In Progress” when you start working on it.
Action Status Workflow
Actions have five possible statuses:
| Status | Trigger | Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Pending | Default for new actions | Shown in Pending column |
| In Progress | Manual move or completion 1–99% | Active work |
| Blocked | Manual move only | Requires a blocked reason |
| Completed | Manual move or completion reaches 100% | Sets completion timestamp |
| Cancelled | Manual action only | Terminal state, not shown on board |
Auto-Status Updates
The system automatically adjusts status based on completion percentage:
- 100% completion → Automatically moves to Completed
- 1–99% completion → Automatically moves to In Progress
- 0% completion → Automatically moves to Pending
Filtering Actions
The filter bar at the top of the Kanban board lets you focus on specific actions:
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Plan | Filter by source plan (multi-select) |
| Committee | Filter by originating committee (multi-select) |
| User | Filter by assigned user (multi-select) |
| Search | Text search matching action title or description |
Use the Clear all button to reset all filters at once.

Creating Actions
You can create new actions directly from the Kanban board using the filter bar’s create button. New actions require:
-
Enter a title — A clear description of what needs to be done
-
Assign the action — Choose a responsible user
-
Set a due date — When the action should be completed
-
Choose a priority — High, Medium, or Low
Actions can also be created from:
- Meetings — During agenda discussions in the Prepare tab

- Committees — Through the Organize module
Cross-Module Tracking
The Kanban board aggregates actions from multiple sources:
- From Plans — Actions tied to plan objectives and orientations
- From Committees — Actions created during committee meetings
- Direct — Actions created directly on the Kanban board
All actions appear on the same board regardless of their source, giving you a unified view of your work.
