Kanban: stop a card moving to next stack until checkbox field is ticked?

[Jon_Cotton]

Hi all

Is there any way of blocking a card from moving to the next stack until a checkbox field on the card is ticked?

We’d like to make sure a number of checkbox fields are ‘done’ before a card can be moved to the next stack.

Thanks - Jon

Welcome to the community, @Jon_Cotton!

Yes, you could do this with an automation.

Kanban stacks are specifically based on the contents of one single-select field, so you would want to hold off on manually modifying that field by letting the automation do it for you instead.

Just setup your automation to change the single-select field to the appropriate option whenever all the checkboxes have been checked.

Thanks Scott, will give that a try!
