This video walkthrough demonstrates how atelier partners use the Kleiders production Kanban board to manage their workflow.
## The Board Layout
The Kanban board organizes orders into columns:
- **Requested** — New orders awaiting acceptance
- **Material Sourcing** — Orders where fabric needs to be procured
- **In Production** — Active construction
- **Quality Check** — Final inspection before shipping
- **Completed** — Delivered and verified
## Drag-and-Drop Management
Atelier owners simply drag order cards between columns as work progresses. Each move triggers an automatic status update that's visible to the customer.
## Real-Time Collaboration
Multiple team members can view and update the board simultaneously, making it ideal for studios with 2-5 craftspeople.
