How to find tasks not added to Visual Task Board

I'm trying to use VTB to track Tasks that fall under a certain category (report request related tasks) and the status that they are in. So as to not lose track of the rest of my tasks, I'm looking for a way to identify Tasks that are, and those that are not, on a Visual Task Board.

How can I identify what VTBs that a Task is associated with, or if they are associated with any VTB?

Doesn't really work like that.   Think of the VTB as a visual interpretation of a query result.  
Any task can be viewed on any VTB who's query would select that Task.   It can even happen simultaneously.

Hi Sky,



Sorry if I understood your question wrongly.



You can find the relationship between Visual Task board and Task table in "Visual Task Board Cards(vtb_card)".



Which is having 3 important fields "Board", "Lane" and "Task". Hope this table will help your requirement.

Well now... isn't THAT interesting.
I never thought that there'd be stored records representing the fact that a task has appeared on a board.

I had already found that relationship, but had to run a report and a search then compare the results to see which tasks weren't represented.



After speaking to our admin, he thinks it's possible to add a field to tasks to display the boards associated with it. While it's not exactly what I was looking for, it'll help me manage work a little more efficiently as I can find this info in the work unit (the task) and not have to cross-reference.
