Monday:

As a new week begins, you start your day by creating a KanBo workspace entitled “Accounts Payable”. Here you add “cards” for each of your employees and assign their tasks for the week. As you collaborate with your colleagues, you find that the @Mention feature helps you highlight any important notes or questions related to the tasks assigned.

Your team’s tasks for the day involve processing a number of invoices. You quickly add these invoices as “documents” to the KanBo space, streamlining the process of cross-checking against each others’ work for any discrepancies or errors.

Wednesday:

You set up a Kanban board in KanBo to keep track of the project’s budget. You create lists for “expenses,” “income,” and “pending payments,” with each list corresponding to a phase of the project. By the end of the day, you realize that this has helped you track your financials more efficiently, as you can easily reorder and categorize tasks.
