3. **Add a list** Choose “Add a list” to group related tasks, for example Design or Launch.
4. **Add tasks** Add tasks and set an owner, a due date and a priority on each.
5. **Open the task drawer** Open any task to see its drawer with details, and change its status.
6. **Work on the board** Open the Kanban board and drag tasks across statuses as work moves.

## Customise statuses

Rename, add, move up or down and delete custom statuses so the board matches how your team works. Switch between list and grid views of your projects.

## Find tasks

- Search tasks by keyword.
- Filter by employee, status, priority and overdue.
- Use My Tasks for yours and All Tasks for the whole team.

> **Tip:** Only admins and project managers can assign or reassign tasks. Employees can take work for themselves.
