The work note may include basic work contents related to the progress of the work project, and may contain simple memos for information delivery purposes.

In addition, the work note may be created in the form of a file, and the file itself created or uploaded by the work participant may be defined as an independent work note and added to the Kanban card. For example, the first work chat room or the first dedicated container may provide a dedicated interface for creating a work note, and when a file itself is uploaded by a work participant, the file is converted into a work note and used by other work participants. can be shared with

In one embodiment, the work note processing unit 330 may provide a work message including a permanent link to the work note to the work chat room. Here, the work chat room may basically correspond to a work chat room shared through the second integrated container of the Kanban board. That is, the record on the work note can be shared as a work message (or system message) through the work chat room that is uniquely connected to the Kanban card, and if external sharing is set and a permanent link is inserted into the work note, the work note Corresponding permanent links can also be inserted into business messages related to . Since the work chat room in which the work message is shared is shared outside the Kanban card through the second integrated container, other people who do not participate in the work project can also access the work note through the permanent link of the work message.

When the Kanban card is created, the business chat room processing unit 340 creates a first business chat room associated with the corresponding Kanban card in the second dedicated container to share conversations, business messages, and system messages related to the corresponding Kanban card among business participants. . That is, the first work chat room may correspond to a work chat room uniquely connected to a specific Kanban card. Here, the system message is a message associated with the Kanban card and may correspond to a message related to a card state change of the Kanban card. The system message can be overlapped with a part of the work message, and can be defined as an independent notification message separated from the work message as needed.

For example, the first work chat room may provide information on note records, conversation contents, task records, etc. related to the corresponding kanban card in the form of messages. Accordingly, task participants can check the records of all activities of the corresponding task project through inquiry of task messages or system messages, and can also check message records sorted by time series, task handlers, or task directors.

In addition, when a work note is created, the work chat room processing unit 340 creates a second work chat room related to the work note in a second dedicated container to share conversations, work messages, and system messages related to the work note among work participants. can That is, the second work chat room may correspond to a work chat room uniquely connected to a specific work note. Therefore, the work chat room processing unit 340 may create a second work chat room and insert it into the second dedicated container whenever a new work note is created in one Kanban card, and the work participants associated with the work note You can participate in the work chat room and share conversations related to the work note.

Meanwhile, each of the first and second work chat rooms may share system messages as well as conversations or work messages related to kanban cards and work notes, and may independently provide a creation function for work objects. That is, the work object (or task) created in association with the Kanban card can be created through a dedicated interface provided in the first work chat room, and the work object (or task) created in association with the work note is the second task.
