===== Adding users =====

1. What if you're not the only user working on a project? You may also add related parties or users to the project with the “**Sharing**” feature.

Deck owner may also assign privileges to the shared users: **Can edit**, **Can Share**, **Can Manage & Delete**.

Only those who have been shared with the Deck could be assigned to the Cards created. To assign users, click the Card, e.g. “**Prepare Write Up for Deck**” and a side menu appears as below.

2. As seen above, there are 4 sections in the side menu: 

**Details**: include options to add tags (Action needed, To review, etc.), assign users to the card, edit the due date, connect items (other cards, conversations, etc.), and add a description with Markdown formatting.

===== Kanban Tips ===== 

  * Change the lists to better suit your needs. For example, you may benefit from lists for ideas, reviewed by project manager X, accepted by client Y, etc.

  * Focus on getting tasks from in-progress to done instead of getting more tasks in progress.

  * Make the most out of the card Details organization options for easier usage of the board filter view options.

  * Pay attention to time on tasks with the Timeline section. Is a task taking longer than it should? Do the comments explain the time gap between milestones within a task?



With DCP Deck, it makes project management and collaboration easy and monitored. 



The end.
