Projects and planning
Customize board columns
Add, rename, reorder, and safely delete a project's board columns.
Every project starts with three columns. Paid plans that include custom board columns can change that structure.
Manage columns
- Open Board and select a project.
- Add a column from the right side of the board.
- Rename a column by selecting its name or using its menu.
- Drag a column header to reorder it.
- Use the column menu to delete it.
If a column contains tasks, Avara requires you to choose another column for those tasks before deletion. Empty columns can be deleted directly. This prevents tasks from being orphaned.
Basic workspaces retain their three default columns and can still move tasks between them. Adding, renaming, reordering, and deleting columns is controlled by the workspace plan.
