The nature of the Kanban method is visualizing the project by tasks’ completion stages, which usually become the board’s columns. This is how we recommended using Kanban Tool.
And to keep visual track of the project timeline, please use a due date on each task, observe the time left countdown on every card, and - most notably - preview the timeline in the interactive Calendar. A setup like this gives you the best of both worlds: a Kanban view with task positions determined by completion stages and a calendar view displaying by when each item needs finishing.
Another approach would be treating the workflow stages as your complete-by indicators. This way, the board bases on the notion of keeping task completion by set days, weeks, or other time values.
Lastly, if you like, you can add swimlanes to the board to display your project information as a Kanban & timeline hybrid. Due to its complexity, it is the last approach we’d recommend, but we know that some Kanban Tool users find it helpful. A flow like this can provide a way to visualize tasks planned for much later but hidden away from the daily work view.
