You can create your product backlog from the sub menus in Projects. You can then pull the cards (user stories/defects/issues) from the backlog onto the Kanban Board to work on them. You can also add cards from the Kanban Board and add to the backlog.
To define a product backlog in Swift Kanban, you may want to:
Create User Stories
Create Defects
Create Issues
To create a user story, from the selected Project ▼ Backlog » User Stories view, click the Create button.
In the Details tab, enter the details such as, Title, Priority, etc., and then click Save.
When you select the above attributes, it will help you to pick up cards on the highest priority on the Kanban Board using the Board Filter option.
After you save the details, additional sections – Comments and Attachments appear in the Details view, and also additional tabs i.e. To-Do, Traceability, and Activity Log appear.
Add/Reply to Comments: Collaborate with your team members on work related to a specific story. Add your comments to the story and reply to a particular comment. Click the Add Comment button to add your comment, and then click Save. Click the reply button for a comment to reply. The Comments window displays the date, time, etc. so you can view and track the comments. Click the link for example, “has 2 replies” to view the replies to a particular comment. Whether you add your comments from the Detail view or Kanban Board, you can track the comments for the story here.
Upload/Download/Delete Attachments: Upload your files to the story, or download, or delete them. To upload files, click Add, browse the file, and then click Upload.

By default, the Current State will be ‘Pending’, which you can update after you complete the task. You cannot change the default ‘Applicable Queue’ which displays the queue under which the task was created and remains valid for the queue.
