I understand that you have to make minor tweaks here and there , but it seems in the past 3 months you have made 2 major program changes with boards and roles. 

As soon as I get the system working one way you change it - then I have to adopt another way of using the program and you change it again. What happens if you have a few complaints with the way it is now, do you plan on changing it again?

If you keep making changes and we have to keep adjusting how we use the program, I am sure you will lose your customer base. Maybe you feel you are improving the program, but choose a style and keep it that way....PLEASE

Hi Aymeric,

As per the earlier conversation I understand you have someone new working on the details of how the program should be used. Do you have any updated information or can you point me to the location that has the most updated, relevant information?

I am trying to realign how I am using the program to be compatible with your intentions - just so when changes are made in the future they do not totally screw up how I use the program.

I just went into the "in-app tutorial" and I am not sure if this is current now or not.

For instance when I watch the high impact tasks - you refer to roles - but I am not sure if I am meant to be dragging items from roles into the high impact tasks area.

Also, now I am not sure whether Boards, Roles or objectives are where I should be keeping the to-do list for each area.

Finally, in the Help, Understanding the methodology, you are referring to the inbox, is this new or old information.

My assumption is that I should have around 7 boards which I keep general to-do lists, then for each board I drag and drop the items I need to get to each week into backlog by roles. Then from there I drop them onto the calendar as I feel I can schedule them for that week. If that is the case, at what point are they placed onto the high Impact tasks?

......or is this totally incorrect.

Thanks

Bob

Hi, Bob!

Thank you for reaching out. 

Aymeric is away from his desk at the moment. We have forwarded your message to him for review. 

We appreciate your kind patience to wait for his response.

Thank you.

  1. The help sidebar is the most up to date information.

2.The normal flow of task would be: Inbox > Backlog > Plan of the Week > Schedule

So when you pick a task from a board that you want to do this week, you can either drag it to Plan of the Week, or move it directly into Schedule if you have a specific date in mind.

3. Inbox is a quick place where to jot down tasks or ideas, but without having to think too much about location / importance / urgency.

4. I will review the in-app tutorial

Aymeric,

That is Totally different to how I was using the program. In all honesty I had never even seen the inbox and I think it will be very useful to use.

I have realigned everything to using the program in this method - I also like the fact that it is giving me a way to track OKR's within the program.

Thanks once again.

Ok Using the program as you suggest, I am taking items from the inbox and dropping in the backlog by roles (thus giving me a long list of items that need to be done in some form of group list). What is the purpose of Boards if the items go from backlog by roles straight to Plan of the week or to the schedule? It used to be the boards were used like a parking lot for each role - now it seems the boards are redundant. How are you personally using the boards or how do you intend them to be used?
