See manage your tasks with sprints in the Gantt chart. You can also run only a subset of a traditional project using sprints. You can see all of your agile tasks in the Gantt chart view and manage them using both traditional waterfall methods and with sprints. You can then use sprints views to see tasks assigned to specific sprints. To run a project with sprints in Project, you first need to add tasks to your project, then assign tasks to sprints, and finally move tasks across the board as your team works on and completes them. The Sprint Planning Board will display, allowing you to add your project tasks and move them to different sprint cycles. Not only can you add sprints to an existing project, but you can also create new sprints-based projects from the Sprints Project template.Ĭhoose the File menu, choose New, and in the Featured templates, select Sprints Project. Using these features is described in the Plan your project with sprints section. This will add an additional sprint to your project.Īfter you have added all your sprints, select OK.Īfter you have added additional sprints to your project, a Sprints tab will display in the ribbon, allowing you to manage your sprint features in the project. Sprint Start: The start date of the sprint you are adding.ĭuration: The length in time fo the sprint (for example, one week). In the Add Sprint section, specify the information for additional sprints you want to add: You can edit the Length and Start information provided for Sprint 1:

On the Manage Sprints page, your first sprint is added by default. On the Project tab, choose Manage Sprints. After adding more sprints to your project, the Sprints tab will provide you additional sprints features. Now that you can view and manage your project through a Task Board, Project also lets you add sprints to it. If you want to view the same customizations in other projects, you will need to configure them for those projects as well. Note: Card customization settings are specific to the project in which they were set. You should now see all task cards for the project display with the fields you selected. In the Additional Fields section, click the drop-down menu and select the custom field you want to display. On the Customize Task Board Cards page, in the Base Fields section, select the Base Fields that you want to display. Select the Format tab, and then select Customize Cards. This will allow you to display information for up to five custom fields in each task card, as well as select the base fields that will show. You can choose to provide more information in the task cards for your project (such as custom field information) by using the Customize Task Board Cards feature. When tasks are displayed in Task Board views, task "cards" will by default show several base fields along with the task name (the resource assigned to it, and a checkmark if the task has been completed). To change the setting, click the value for the task, and select the value you want to change to. The Show on Board column will display the value for each task ( Yes or No).


In the Gantt Chart for the project, select Add a New Column. Open your project in the Gantt Chart View. To change the Show on Board setting for a task:

If you are used to working with projects with Kanban features such as boards, Project lets you view and manage your existing traditional "waterfall" projects in a Task Board view. This means that you may not yet see this feature or it may look different than what is described in the help articles.
