Subitem-only cards in Kanban View

UPVOTE: Does monday.com have a plan and/or timeline for when this feature could be implemented?

Upvote. This feature is a must have. Kanban for individual sub-items with its own status cards will be super helpful when working on a project with multiple sub items

It would be nice if we could have a filter view for this:

  • Filter by items with subitems
    -Filter showing subitems as cards
    -Filter by subitems only

itā€™s great that we can see subitems in this view and they are clickable.

Suggestions:

  1. Have an option to only show subitems in card if there is a subitem, this would maximize the amount of cards we can see in our kanban
  2. have an option where we could highlight cards/items if they contain subitems. We can highlight a row based on other criteria, why not adding another option to say if they have subitems.
  3. have an option to ā€˜show subitems as individual cardsā€™
  4. filter for subitems only cards
  5. filter for items without sub-items

These would be big improvements to kanban, by allowing more cards to fit on a view, highlighting which items have subitems (so we know they are larger tasks), and the option of showing items and subitems as individual cards.

Highlighting the card would be much like ā€˜conditional coloringā€™ which is already available on the grid view.
2. Being able to click on subitems in the card view even if subitems were not selected on the gear icon. see gif; you cannot click on the subitems unless you have the gear icon selected.
Being able to highlight cards/items if they contained subitems would let us know if the item/card was a larger one and we could select it. right now I rename the items to let us know if it contains subitems, but itā€™s a pain.

Upvote, need the subitems fully visibles as cards in the Kanban view

A must have - for me and my team to fully utilise the kanban view we need to have the subitems as separate cards. @monday-team is there a plan to implement this change?

Upvote - I need sub-items as stand alone cards in the kanban.

It is crazy that itā€™s not possible to create Kanban views or even tables comprised solely of sub-items. Sub-items are the most atomic unit of work for most teams and people ā€“ not being able to view them in isolation is a huge flaw. Will likely need to migrate to another solution because of this huge miss.

:heavy_plus_sign::one: as well; would love to have a Kanban board just for the sub-tasks

:heavy_plus_sign::one: on this feature request. Absolutely essential

Upvote - Iā€™m still searching for the perfect platform, but having subitems accessible in their own Kanban view as individual cards is one of the primary features Iā€™m looking for. Please implement!

Upvote! This would be a huge help for the number of items we are working on which are actually Sub items.

Our staff is trying to buildout Monday as a potential new task/project management tool for our nonprofit. Our staff is mobile, and needs to be able to use the mobile app. Some of the suggested workarounds might work on desktop, but thereā€™s a lot of friction on the app. The fact that Subitems arenā€™t available on Kanban boards makes the tool infinitely less valuable.

We also need subitems as their own cards in Kanban view. Without it, the Kanban view is useless to us.

Agreed this would be a very useful function

Another +1 here too. I was told to move our Jira instance and boards over to Monday, but leadership just assumed we could make kanban boards out of the subitems and now we are at a loss. This feature would be essential to our usage of Monday. Andā€¦ I donā€™t see why it isnā€™t already a feature. We can use the API to access a board that is the subitems of another board, we can set status a status field on subitemsā€¦

+1 on this

Sub item should have their own card on the Kanban view, itā€™s pretty useless at the moment

Just to add, this is blocking wider adoption at our org as well - particularly in tech teams. So they are paying for Jira & DevOps licenses instead and we are losing sight of what they are doing. Not good.

This feature would avoid us having to utilise multiple tools and bring huge efficiency.
