Jira Kanban Board with parallel Processes

[Tristan Reifert]

Hi Guys,

i need parallel Processes with different Steps in my Kanban board. Is something like that possible with the JIRA Kanban board, or is there a Plugin available to do that? 

Thanks very much for helping me out!

Cheers

Visually, you will probably need a plug in to do what you want.
Functionally, you can "nest" workflows and board views within the workflow (similar to this thread). 

There are a couple of options I have seen:

• The top level board could have the statuses (Landing Zone, Sassy IT Things, Done Squared).
• Secondary boards might include Marco, Jason, Tyler
  • Swim lane for expedite
  • Swim lane for routine & scheduled maintenance.
• Workflows check out the other thread.

Or

Make one board and use swim lanes for the teams including the landing zone (triage, security work, etc..)

Hope this helps

Hi Ryan,

do you have a plugin in your mind that could do that job? Because at the moment i cant imagine how these nested Workflows and Boards are working if you are not able to see that on the board :-/ 

Thanks for your help!

Unfortunately I don't have one to recommend.

Best I can do is give the example of how I have used for program/ product management level and team level underneath. I have 5-10 teams working with Kanban and Scrum boards underneath a Kanban board for epics/ features at a program level.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
