with labels, and from there organize and prioritize them with Issue Boards.

+### Use cases for Multiple Issue Boards
+
+With [Multiple Issue Boards](#multiple-issue-boards), available only in
+[GitLab Enterprise Edition](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/),
+each team can have their own board to organize their workflow individually.
+
+#### Scrum team
+
+With multiple Issue Boards, each team has one board. Now you can move issues through each
+part of the process. For instance: **To Do**, **Doing**, and **Done**.
+
+#### Organization of topics
+
+Create lists to order things by topic and quickly change them between topics or groups,
+such as between **UX**, **Frontend**, and **Backend**. The changes will be reflected across boards,
+as changing lists will update the label accordingly.
+
+#### Advanced team handover
+
+For example, suppose we have a UX team with an Issue Board that contains:
+
+- **To Do**
+- **Doing**
+- **Frontend**
+
+When done with something, they move the card to **Frontend**. The Frontend team's board looks like:
+
+- **Frontend**
+- **Doing**
+- **Done**
+
+Cards finished by the UX team will automatically appear in the **Frontend** column when they're ready for them.
+

+Create lists for each of your team members and quickly drag-and-drop issues onto each team member.
-| What we call it | What it means |
-| -------------- | ------------- |
-| **Issue Board** | It represents a different view for your issues. It can have multiple lists with each list consisting of issues represented by cards. |
-| **List** | Each label that exists in the issue tracker can have its own dedicated list. Every list is named after the label it is based on and is represented by a column which contains all the issues associated with that label. You can think of a list like the results you get when you filter the issues by a label in your issue tracker. |
-| **Card** | Every card represents an issue and it is shown under the list for which it has a label. The information you can see on a card consists of the issue number, the issue title, the assignee and the labels associated with it. You can drag cards around from one list to another. You can re-order cards within a list. |

+## Issue Board terminology
+
+- **Issue Board** - Each board represents a unique view for your issues. It can have multiple lists with each list consisting of issues represented by cards.
+- **List** - A column on the issue board that displays issues matching certain attributes. In addition to the default lists of 'Backlog' and 'Closed' issue, each additional list will show issues matching your chosen label or assignee.
+ - **Label list**: a list based on a label. It shows all opened issues with that label.

+ - **Closed** (default): shows all closed issues. Always appears as the rightmost list.
+- **Card** - A box in the list that represents an individual issue. The information you can see on a card consists of the issue number, the issue title, the assignee, and the labels associated with the issue. You can drag cards from one list to another to change their label or assignee from that of the source list to that of the destination list.

-## Group Issue Board
+Multiple Issue Boards, as the name suggests, allow for more than one Issue Board
+for a given project or group. This is great for large projects with more than one team

+## Configurable Issue Boards **[STARTER]**
+
+> Introduced in [GitLab Starter Edition 10.2](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/11/22/gitlab-10-2-released/#issue-boards-configuration).
+
+An Issue Board can be associated with GitLab [Milestone](milestones/index.md#milestones),
+[Labels](labels.md), Assignee and Weight
+which will automatically filter the Board issues according to these fields.
+This allows you to create unique boards according to your team's need.
+
+![Create scoped board](img/issue_board_creation.png)
+
+You can define the scope of your board when creating it or by clicking on the "Edit board" button. Once a milestone, assignee or weight is assigned to an Issue Board, you will no longer be able to filter
+through these in the search bar. In order to do that, you need to remove the desired scope (e.g. milestone, assignee or weight) from the Issue Board.
+
+![Edit board configuration](img/issue_board_edit_button.png)
+
+If you don't have editing permission in a board, you're still able to see the configuration by clicking on "View scope".

+
+Click the button at the top right to toggle focus mode on and off. In focus mode, the navigation UI is hidden, allowing you to focus on issues in the board.

+
+> Introduced in [GitLab Premium 10.0](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/09/22/gitlab-10-0-released/#group-issue-boards).
+
+Accessible at the group navigation level, a group issue board offers the same features as a project-level board,
+but it can display issues from all projects in that
+group and its descendant subgroups. Similarly, you can only filter by group labels for these
boards. When updating milestones and labels for an issue through the sidebar update mechanism, again only
group-level objects are available.
-One group issue board per group was made available in GitLab 10.6 Core after multiple group issue boards were originally introduced in [GitLab 10.0 Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/09/22/gitlab-10-0-released/#group-issue-boards).

+## Assignee lists **[PREMIUM]**
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/5784) in GitLab 11.0 Premium.
+
+Like a regular list that shows all issues that have the list label, you can add
+an assignee list that shows all issues assigned to the given user.
+You can have a board with both label lists and assignee lists. To add an
+assignee list:
+
+1. Click **Add list**.
+1. Select the **Assignee list** tab.
+1. Search and click on the user you want to add as an assignee.
+
+Now that the assignee list is added, you can assign or unassign issues to that user
+by [dragging issues](#dragging-issues-between-lists) to and/or from an assignee list.
+To remove an assignee list, just as with a label list, click the trash icon.
+
+![Assignee lists](img/issue_board_assignee_lists.png)
+
+## Dragging issues between lists
+
+When dragging issues between lists, different behavior occurs depending on the source list and the target list.
+
+| | To Backlog | To Closed | To label `B` list | To assignee `Bob` list |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| From Backlog | - | Issue closed | `B` added | `Bob` assigned |
+| From Closed | Issue reopened | - | Issue reopened<br/>`B` added | Issue reopened<br/>`Bob` assigned |
