Release 3.3

ON 31 MAY 2020

Loosely coupled Story Board Lane and System Status

There are two types of kanban board available in Quickscrum,

1. Story board
This board enables you to flow story (workitem).

2. Task board
This board enables you to flow task and change the parent story (workitem) status accordingly.

Please note that custom status solution can be achieved only by configuring story board lanes.

We have made relationship between story board lane and workitem system status loosely coupled. Earlier, when you change board lane, workitem status automatically gets updated. It works based on the configuration now, so when you change the board lane workitem status may or may not get updated.

Custom Status Solution

After we have made story board lane and system status loosely coupled, most of the use case can be implemented within Quickscrum such as,

1. Pre-sprint board
2. Post-sprint board
3. Pre-release board
4. Post-release board
5. Mutliple team collaboration through separate boards
6. Phase wise project execution
7. Defect Management Custom flow
8. Ticket Management Custom flow
and many more.
