## Board with a milestone
## Board with configuration
> Introduced in [GitLab Enterprise Edition 9.0](https://about.gitlab.com/2017/03/22/gitlab-9-0-released/#boards-with-milestones-ees-eep).

An Issue Board can be associated with a GitLab [Milestone](milestones/index.md#milestones)
which will automatically filter the issue to that milestone. This allows you to
create unique boards for individual milestones.
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.
You can assign a milestone to a board when creating a new Issue Board or you
can update current Issue Boards to also have a milestone. Once a specific
milestone is assigned to an Issue Board, you will no longer be able to filter
through any other milestone. In order to do that, you need to remove the
defined milestone from the Issue Board.
![Create scoped board](img/issue_board_creation.png)
There are also two pre-defined milestones, **Any milestone** which will filter
the issues with any milestone, and **Upcoming** which will filter issues to the
milestone with the due date that is next.
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.

If you don't have editing permission in a board, you're still able to see the configuration by clicking on "View scope".
