It is easy to evaluate Planningboard using our demo project. In this article we explain how to setup Planningboard into your existing project. As an example we will use default E-Library demo project that bundles with Polarion.

You can create a project based on the “E-library” template to reproduce exactly these steps or just use information from this article for your own project needs.

1. Create a Project

• Create a new project and choose E-library as a template; 

2. Create a Planning Board Page

• Open Documents & Pages - choose Planning space;

• In the Planning space create a new LiveReport Page and name it "PlanningBoard"; We create this document because PLANNINGBOARD works like a widget for a LiveReport Page.

• From the list of available Widgets choose Plans - Planning Board.

• As you see now it loads Planningboard based on E-library planning settings.

• Now you can play with it to see how straightforward it is in use.
