Hello,

The developer's taskboard in RTC 2.0 is a fantastic tool to follow user story in a "Kanban" way, I'm wondering if is it possible to add an other status column in it ?

Default developer's taskport include 3 status : Todo / In Progress / Done. I want to add "implemented" status in this dashboard (as a 4th column) is this customization is available ?

Thanks!

Sorry I forgot a not: We can not see all columns in the web client, while we can see all the columns in the eclipse client.

This is possible, you can display the states of a specific workflow. See
this screenshot: http://www.poshnet.ch/jing/2009-10-16_1124.png

1) edit the Taskbord view mode, select the "pen" icon to the right of the
taskboard entry
2) select the workflow of which you want to display the states as columns

note that this renders items with a different workflow at the bottom, in a
"Items with other workflows" folder.
Also note that this configuration option is currently only available in
the eclipse client. however, after saving the view mode, the web client
will display the additional column as well.

It works!

Is it possible to choose what statuses will be displayed in the taskboard view?
For example I want to display "In testing" but do not interesting in "Invalid" WIs.

-thanks in advance

A related question... I updated my task workflow to include a couple of additional states. On the task board, I selected the Task Workflow, but it doesn't show these new states, only the original ones. I'm using RTC 3.0.1. Also, like timur.markunin suggested, I'd like to eliminate the "Invalid" column, but view my new ones.

The problem I was having was due to inheritance of the process from a parent project that was marked "final", not allowing me to customize the workflow myself. Once I updated the workflow in the parent project, I was able to get all the fields to show up on the Taskboard within Eclipse... However, these new fields still don't show up in the Web Client... Am I doing something wrong?

Hi, I am also looking for similar feature timur.markunin was asking about to filter the states. If it is not possible, we might need to eliminate some status and keep the workflow simple. Since we are moving towards Kanban method, the board will be of very usefull, but we should have full control over it to manipulate the board the way we want. Thanks.

Hi,

Followed below steps to view the additional statuses in story taskboard view, but they are visi8ble only in eclipse client and not in web interface.

1) edited the Taskbord view mode, selected the "pen" icon to the right of the taskboard entry
2) selected the workflow of which you want to display the states as columns

Additional columns were visible in client, however, after saving the view mode as well, additional statuses not available in the web interface.

How to get it visible in web as well?

Thanks,
Kavya.

We have added the following columns:
Estimate
Corrected Estimat
Time Spent
Effort Tracking
Status

but we can see all the columns when we use the web client. The work Item is only so tall that it can show the summery and the two top columns.

When we use the eclipse client we can all the columns, because they are shown where there are space in work item.

Does any one know if I either can give the rows in the task board more height to be able to show all columns listed.

I am using Crom as my web browser.
