More columns for company managed Kanban Project?

[QMSpot _ Patrick Gehlich]

Hello together,

i´m failing to add more columns in a company managed Business Project.
I know, that a column is a status in the workflow.

The thing is, that i need to create a company wide Project Template with customized Screens.
I can do this only with company managed Projects, to use them as some kind of template.
In the screen i need to remove unnessessary fields, to keep the focus.

Thats super frustating at this moment.
My colleagues should be able to create a Project, and add the columns how they want.
With the status "To DO". Like in the team managed Project.

We want to use columns like "Buckets" for different topics like in MS Planner.

Can someone help me please?

Thanks a lot.

Hello @QMSpot _ Patrick Gehlich ,

Good day! Welcome to Atlassian Community :)

In a business project, columns can’t be added directly. They are derived from the workflow, so to create a new column, you’ll need to add a corresponding status in the workflow.

To add more columns in a Kanban board, just highlight it on the left-hand side to see the three dot menu and select Board settings.

From here go to Layout > Columns and from here you can add more columns. Note that in order to move a work item to a column you have to link it with one or more statuses in your workflow.

Thanks a lot for your feedback :)
Thats exactly my problem.

I don´t want to create or link status.
Also my colleagues cannot create them.

I found out that i can create whatever i want columns in a company managed Software Project.

I think i will go with this one.
