Board checklist items and Workfront subtasks are now linked

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

When you add a connected card to a board for a Workfront task, any subtasks are imported as checklist items on the card. Also, when you create a checklist item on a connected card, a subtask is added to the Workfront task. Checklist items on issues are not connected to any Workfront objects.

Previously, checklist items and subtasks were not linked. If you wanted to include a subtask on the board you could import it as a separate connected card or manually add a checklist item to a card.

For more information, see Use connected cards on boards and Manage checklist items on cards.

Card counter on board columns

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

A new configuration setting is available to turn on a card counter for all of the columns on a board. If you are using the WIP limit on a column, a separate card counter is not added.

For more information, see Manage board columns.

Search and sort on the boards dashboard

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

You can now sort the boards dashboard by board name or date, and search for a specific board in the list.

For more information, see Use the boards dashboard.

Status displays on card

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

If a card on a board is assigned a status, the status now displays on the card so that you do not have to open the card to see the status. This enhancement applies to both ad hoc and connected cards.

For more information, see Use connected cards on boards and Add an ad hoc card to a board.

Linkable cards now available on boards

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

You can now send a link to a specific card to another boards user. The person must have access to view the board before they can open the link.

When you open a card on a board, the browser URL looks like this:

https://<Workfront-URL>/boards/<board-id>/card/<card-id>.

You can copy the full URL and send it to someone else. They will go directly to the open card when they access the link.

Previously, links were available to boards but not specific cards.

For information on cards, see Add an ad hoc card to a board and Use connected cards on boards.

Filter by connection on Boards

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

The list of filters on a board now includes the option to filter by connection, which shows you all of the connected cards for a specific project. You can also filter by cards that are not connected.

For more information, see Filter and search in a board.

Archive cards from a board on a schedule

NOTE
This feature is available only through the early feature opt-in for Workfront Boards.

You can configure a board so that cards are archived, or “fall off” the board, on a schedule. Options are available to set cards in a particular column to archive in a certain number of days or weeks. For example, you could define the falloff so that cards in a Complete column are archived after they are in the column for two weeks.

If you want to display the cards again after they fall off the board, you can set the board filter to display archived cards.

For more information, see Configure card falloff.
