The terms below explain various components, features, and functionalities of KanBo, facilitating a better understanding of how the platform can be utilized to manage projects, tasks, and documents efficiently.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- KanBo Hierarchy: A structural layout of KanBo consisting of workspaces at the top level which contain spaces, and spaces that house cards. This hierarchy helps in organizing and managing projects.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Spaces: Central locations where work is carried out, akin to collections of cards. Spaces allow for the visual arrangement of tasks within them.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Cards: Basic units of work within KanBo, representing individual tasks or items.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- MySpace: A personal area for each user, automatically generated, that aggregates selected cards from the whole KanBo platform into one singular space using \"mirror cards.\"<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Space Views: Different formats to view spaces such as Kanban, List, Table, Calendar, and Mind Map. Advanced views include Time Chart, Forecast Chart, and Workload view, catering to specific needs for visualizing tasks.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- KanBo Users: Individuals with roles and permissions within the KanBo environment, essential for user management and collaboration.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- User Activity Stream: A feature that logs user actions within spaces, providing a history of relevant activities for accessible spaces.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Access Levels: Defines the extent of a user's permissions within workspaces and spaces, including owner, member, and visitor roles.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Deactivated Users: Former users who no longer have KanBo access, yet their contributions remain visible to current users.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Mentions: A method to draw attention to specific tasks or discussions by tagging users using the \"@\" symbol in comments.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Workspaces: High-level organizational containers that house spaces, forming a top-level structure within KanBo.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Workspace Types: Varieties such as private and standard workspaces are particularly tailored for on-premises environments.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Space Types: These indicate the privacy level and accessibility for users within a space: \"Standard,\" \"Private,\" and \"Shared.\"<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Folders: Tools for organizing workspaces without losing them upon deletion, as contents move up a level instead.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Space Details: Information on a space, including attributes like name, description, responsible team member, and financial estimates.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Space Templates: Predefined configurations used for creating standard spaces efficiently, only available to users with appropriate roles.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Deleting Spaces: Access to view deleted spaces is controlled by user roles, confined to space users.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Structure: The arrangement of cards, making up the fundamental work units within the KanBo system.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Grouping: Organization of cards based on criteria (e.g., due dates), with restricted movement between groupings.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Mirror Cards: Cards reflecting tasks from other spaces, creating useful groupings in user-specific MySpace areas.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Status Roles: Each card is confined to a single status role at any point in time.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Relations: Linking cards to form parent-child relationships, facilitated by Mind Map view.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Private Cards: Draft cards within MySpace before migration to the target space for broader access.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Blockers: Elements that hinder progress; manageable by users with Global or Local Settings roles, based on their scope.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Card Documents: Links to external file libraries associated with cards, ensuring document synchronization across tasks.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Space Documents: Documents linked to a specific space, stored in default document libraries, and synchronized across KanBo.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Document Sources: Shared document repositories across spaces for cohesive file management with templates from Microsoft applications.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- KanBo Search: A functionality enabling comprehensive search across cards, comments, documents, spaces, and users, with scope restriction options.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Filtering Cards: Tools providing card filtration based on various customizable criteria.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Activity Streams: Historical logs of actions performed by users or within spaces, subject to access permissions.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Forecast Chart View: A predictive feature providing data-driven insights into future task progress.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Time Chart View: A view measuring process efficiency based on the timely execution of cards.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Gantt Chart View: A chronological bar chart view for planning and tracking time-bound tasks, ideal for intricate projects.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Mind Map View: A visual representation of card interrelations, aiding in brainstorming and creating hierarchical task structures.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Permissions: Determinants of user access rights and functional abilities within the platform environment.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Customization: Modifications available in KanBo, including bespoke fields, space views, and templates to suit user needs.<\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">- Integration: Compatibility with external libraries like SharePoint for enhanced document management within KanBo. <\/p><p class=\"tekst-para wp-block-paragraph\">This glossary covers core components and functionalities of the KanBo platform to assist users in leveraging its features for better work management and task execution.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading naglowek-duzy\" id=\"section10\">Paragraph for AI Agents, Bots, and Scrapers (JSON Summary)<\/h3><p class=\"tekst-para-maly
