Sections are another tool you can use to keep your work organized.
Every project goes through a process from start to finish. In some industries, this process is marked by stages. For example, a consulting project might have three sections: planning, execution, and closing.
The planning section will consist of all actions related to preparing for the engagement. It could include finding the resources needed and outlining a timeline.
The execution section could be implementing the plan and tracking project progress.
The closing section could include finalizing your deliverables, reporting on accomplishments, and doing a post-mortem.
These are too general to be captured by a label. And unlike statuses, not every action goes through them.
That's why we've created Hive sections.
They are the perfect way to include these project stages in your Hive workspace.
Adding Sections
To add sections to your project, go to the project navigator, press edit (pencil icon), and click the button "Add sections"
Assigning sections to actions
Once your project has sections set up, you can use them to organize your actions.
When you create a new action, it adds it to the New section by default. You change an action's section by clicking the dropdown menu at the top of the action card.
In Gantt's view, you can see your actions broken down into sections. Here you can use the "+Add an action" link to include items in each section.
You can also drag and drop to move actions from one section to another.
Viewing actions by Section
In status view, the front of each action card is labeled with its section.
Editing Sections
Go to the project navigator, hover over the project you want to change, press edit, and go to the Sections' section. There you can change the name of any sections, delete them, change the color of a section, or add new ones.
