Excel Gantt to Board Migration for Beginners: Copy Task, Owner, Start, End

Beginners whose Excel Gantt breaks on every update, or who struggle to share and version it, use this template to copy task, owner, start, end, and progress onto a board. The whiteboard lines up the 5 migration steps, 3 frames that map Excel columns to board spots, 3 frames pairing Excel pain points with the board's fix, a copied table example (4 rows x 4 columns), and a frame for update and sharing rules. The task board has 4 columns from getting ready to in use, with 4 parent tasks - auditing the Gantt, copying rows, reordering and verifying, and locking in update rules - each with 3 subtasks (16 total), all starting in Ready to move. To migrate an Excel Gantt chart, first confirm what each column means, copy tasks to cards one row at a time, add the owner and dates, turn progress into a column position, and finally decide who updates it and when. It suits anyone taking over a spreadsheet Gantt chart, and teams switching to shared progress tracking for the first time.
