# Projects

Kanbanara supports multiple and fully isolated projects. A logged-on user will only see those projects they created, were invited to join or are a member of.

The filter bar allows you to easily switch between projects and to display the cards for the project of your choice on your kanban board.

Kanbanara is SAAS-ready in supporting fully isolated projects. An individual user can be a team member in any number of projects and they will only ever be able to see those projects which they created or to which they have been invited.

Only a project manager or deputy project manager can update a project?s settings.

## Announcements

This page allows you to manage a project’s announcements that you wish to impart to your team via Kanbanara’s marquee.

## Base Attributes

This page allows you to declare this instance of your project as a master, a slave or standalone.

It also allows you to set the currency and unit.

## Categories

This page allows you to manage a project’s categories.

## Classes of Service

## Custom Attributes

This page allows you to add custom attributes to your project’s cards.

## Custom States

The Custom States page allows you to add one or more user-defined or custom states each mapped onto one of the built-in metastates.

## Email

## Entry / Exit Criteria

This page allows you to add exit criteria and entry criteria to a column/state.

## Global Work In Progress (WIP) Limits

This page allows you to set the global minimum and maximum Work In Progress (WIP) limits for your project.

Ticking the ‘Enforce WIP Limits’ option will force such global WIP limits to be adhered to [Not yet fully implemented]

Ticking the ‘WIP Limits Apply To Blocked’ option will force such global WIP limits to apply equally to blocked cards.

## Project Timeline

## Releases and Iterations

This page allows you to add releases and iterations to your project.

## Subteams

This page allows you to define a subteam for your project. Such project subteams would allow you, for example, to divide your cards by persona.

## Synchronisation

If this instance of your project has been declared as a slave, this page allows you to enter the host and port details of the master with which it will need to synchronise.

## Team Members

This page allows you to invite new members to join your project.

## Workflow

The Workflow tab allows you to set up the steps and columns required in your workflow.

Each step can contain a main column, a counterpart column (think of this as a second main column) and a buffer column. A step can consist of:

A Main column A Buffer column Main and Counterpart columns Main and Buffer columns Main, Counterpart and Buffer columns

For each step a display name must be assigned.

To each column must be assigned its display name, centric (e.g. owner or reviewer) and its state (custom or metastate). You can optionally add a textual description of what the state/column means that will appear as a popup on the kanban board when a user hovers over the column name.

Please feel free to leave one or more steps empty should you feel your workflow may be expanded in the future.
