When using the Kanban view, users can currently choose a color for records manually. I would like the record color to be automatically determined by the value of a specific field.
For example, a field named “Andon” could be created with predefined status options:
- Normal = Green
- Issue Detected = Yellow
- Stopped = Red
If the default value of the Andon field is set to “Normal,” the record color would automatically appear green. When the value is changed to “Issue Detected,” the record color would automatically change to yellow. This would make it much easier to visually identify the status of records in the Kanban view.
This refers to the “Andon” boards suspended above production lines in Toyota factories. The word “Andon” originally comes from a type of traditional Japanese lighting fixture. It is a visualization system designed to quickly detect problems and make issues visible. It can also help promote more active communication among team members.
