# SaaS kit: keep Issues board as owned five-column Kanban, not a ghost board

The SaaS Dashboard kit ships an Issues board you can open on the live demo today: five status columns, drag cards between them, and the same issue rows show up in backlog and tasks views. That board only helps a production team if a card move updates one owned `issue` row — not a ghost board that lives in component state while your agent invents a second tracker beside the schema.

This post is that status write-path invariant. It is not the click-through product tour — that lives at [/blog/saas-kit-live-tour](/blog/saas-kit-live-tour). It is not Stripe Customer Portal for plan changes — that shipped earlier today at [/blog/saas-kit-stripe-customer-portal](/blog/saas-kit-stripe-customer-portal).
