About This Feature
Overview
Kanban View is a data display option in multidimensional tables in WPS Office for Android. It groups records by a selected field and shows them as cards in separate columns, making it easier to review status, category, or stage at a glance.
Core capabilities include:
- Create a Kanban view from an existing data table.
- Display records as grouped card columns based on the default grouping field.
- Drag cards between columns to update record status or category.

Compare with Alternatives

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | On Android, multidimensional tables can group records into card columns, create a Kanban view, add records, and keep the same data synced across views. | Microsoft Planner Board view organizes tasks into columns, supports grouping by status, bucket, or another field, and lets users drag tasks between columns. | Google Sheets can create Kanban boards through Sheets canvas, with grouping and drag-and-drop updates, but the official page says canvas may not be available in the Sheets mobile app. | Notion board view groups database pages by properties such as status, assignee, and priority, with filters, sorts, and drag-and-drop card movement. | Adobe Workfront Board view displays project tasks as cards in columns, supports board configuration, and allows switching between board and list views. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: Kanban View is available directly in multidimensional tables on Android and stays synced with table view data. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on Planner task boards in web or Teams workflows and does not describe an Android multidimensional table view. | Compared with WPS: Kanban boards depend on Sheets canvas with Gemini, and the official page notes that canvas may not be available in the Sheets mobile app. | Compared with WPS: the official page focuses on database page management and property-based boards rather than a native Android spreadsheet-style table board entry. | Compared with WPS: the feature is centered on Workfront project environments rather than lightweight table-based record management on Android. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS Kanban View fits users who want to review and update multidimensional table records directly on Android. If your priority is mobile table collaboration with synced views, WPS offers a more direct workflow, while the other products focus more on task platforms, AI-generated canvases, or database workspaces.
Use Cases
| No. | Scenario | Suitable for | Main challenge | How Kanban View helps |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Project stage tracking | Project managers and team members | It is hard to see which stage each task is in | Group records by status and review them as cards |
| 2 | Team task assignment | Small collaborative teams | Task distribution is not visual enough and status updates take extra steps | Drag cards between grouped columns to update progress |
| 3 | Sales lead management | Sales staff | Lead stages are easier to miss in a standard table | Build columns by follow-up stage and review record distribution quickly |
| 4 | Content workflow management | Operations and editorial teams | Topics move frequently between drafting, review, and publishing | Show content records as cards in different workflow stages |
| 5 | Category-based information organization | Individual users and students | Large sets of records are harder to scan by category | Group records by category fields and review similar items together |
