At the top of each lane, the total estimated revenue for the opportunities is shown. Also, shows a count of opportunity cards in that lane. At any given point, only the first 10 records or cards will be shown in any lane. Here, the count shows 10/18.
You can quickly change the details for three fields of an Opportunity record, as the card fields are editable inline.
You can use the Search box to filter the records or cards in the swim lane based on search criteria. E.g. If you enter the keyword "Video streaming Equipment," it will refresh the Kanban view to only show the opportunity records where the title begins with "Video streaming Equipment ".
2. Status-based Kanban view: In the status based Kanban view, each swim lane represents a default opportunity status such as, Open, Won, and Lost.
Moving a card to other lanes in the Status-based Kanban view opens the Opportunity status change dialog box as shown.
You can drag an Opportunity card from the Open pane to the Won or Close lanes. (E.g. Card or Record named Video Streaming Equipment is dragged from Open to Won status).
