Within Teamwork, you can add existing and new
tasks to your board columns as cards.
You can view your project's tasks in board
view by selecting
the Board tab in the project's
navigation menu.

Adding new cards
Once you have columns created on your
board, you can add tasks as cards directly
using the Add a Card option at the
bottom of the column.

You can type the details and press return
on your keyboard to add a few cards
quickly one after the other.
Use the
options to choose basic details like the
task list, assignee, due date, priority
and more before saving. Task properties can also be set using shortcodes.

Adding existing tasks to your board using the backlog
You can also add tasks to your board that
are already in task lists in your project,
by clicking Show Backlog in the top
left of the board view area. You will see
a panel on the left where you can scroll
through the existing tasks from your
project.
At the top of the backlog, you can use the
search field to find a specific task or task
list by name.
Using the filter option beside the search
field, you can choose to show tasks by task
list, assignee, priority or tag.

The list of tasks will be grouped by the task
list they belong to. To move task cards to a
column, drag and drop the card from the
backlog to the column you want to add it
to.

To move multiple tasks at the same time, you
can use the checkbox beside the task list name
to select all of the available tasks in the
list(s), or use the individual checkboxes
beside each individual task.

When adding a task that has subtasks
attached, only the parent task itself
will be added to the column.
- You will see a gray circle to the left of
the task name on the card, with a number
denoting how many subtasks the task
has.
- Clicking the card will open a quick
view showing the task and its
associated subtasks.
- Note: Subtasks are treated
as individual tasks in board view and
need to be added to columns
independent of their parent
task.
- They will appear as separate cards
and can be added to different
columns than the one the parent
task is in.
Adding existing tasks to your board using the column menu
You can also add existing tasks to your
board using the column options menu. Click
the options down arrow to the right of the
column name, and select Add Tasks from the dropdown menu.

The tasks modal will show you a full list
of all task lists and tasks in your
project that you can select using the
checkboxes and add to your board in
bulk.
When task cards are added to a board
column, any cards assigned to you will be
highlighted by a green border.
