Description
Use the CRM Kanban board to track, filter, and manage your opportunities from lead through to settlement.
The Kanban board gives you a visual view of your pipeline so you can prioritise work, monitor deadlines, and take action quickly without opening individual opportunities.
What is the Kanban board?
The Kanban board displays your leads and applications as tiles across multiple columns. Each column represents an opportunity status based on your configured workflow.
Each tile shows key details at a glance and allows you to take action directly from the board
Understand the board layout
Each column represents a stage in your opportunity workflow.
Each tile represents a single opportunity.
As opportunities progress, tiles move from left to right. This makes it easy to see what needs attention, what is coming up next, and what is close to key deadlines.
Filter and customise your view
Use the filters panel
The filters panel on the left lets you narrow the board to show only relevant opportunities.
You can filter by:
Transaction type (for example, home loans)
User (assigned broker or team member)
Lender
You can also:
Save a filter setup as a view
Clear filters to return to the full board
Tip: Saved views help you switch quickly between personal pipelines and team-wide workflows.
Use the quick filter bar
The quick filter bar at the top of the board lets you search instantly by:
Opportunity name
Applicant name
Lender
Broker
This is useful when you need to find an opportunity quickly during a client call or team meeting.
Sort opportunities to set priorities
Sort the entire board
Use Sort board by in the left panel to apply the same sorting rule across all columns.
You can sort by:
Settlement due date
Finance due date
Pre-approval expiry date
Loan amount
Status change date
Lender name
Opportunity name
Last modified date
Creation date
Each option can be sorted oldest to newest or newest to oldest, where applicable.
Sort individual columns
You can also sort each column independently using the sort option in the column header. This allows you to prioritise opportunities differently at each stage of your workflow.
Understand opportunity tiles
Each tile shows critical information so you can manage work without opening the opportunity.
Tiles include:
Opportunity name
Applicant name(s)
Lender
Broker name
Loan amount
Pre-approval expiry date
Finance due date
Settlement due date
Visual indicators showing days remaining to key deadlines
Take action from a tile
You can manage work directly from the Kanban board using tile actions.
Available actions include:
Create note to record updates or conversations
Create task to set reminders or assign follow-ups
Move to branch to transfer the opportunity to another branch or team
These actions help you stay organised and collaborate without leaving the board.
