Click "manage boards" -> "Add board".
I suspect there is more to this question though - could you explain what you are looking for?
Makes sense. There's a lot of variation in Agile and part-Agile, and JIRA is mostly flexible enough to support a lot of approaches.
JIRA Agile was built with Agile in mind though, so when you drift far enough away from it, it can become a bit convoluted. JIRA Agile gives you two options for boards - Scrum and Kanban. Although we could ramble for hours about how they're not quite right for certain Agile stuff and missing things people would like in others, I try not to.
My usual opening question is "do you want to plan your work, in some form of segmented time frames". If you do, use a Scrum board. If you don't, then use Kanban.
You've already indicated you want planning, so Scrum it is. I'd create a Scrum board, and get it right ("right" meaning "works for you", not "follows agile doctrine to the letter"). In my head, I then bypass all that waffle about Agile and tell you to do three things:
Once you've got one scrum and several kanbans running, you'll get used to it, then you can tweak and expand as needed. But get a scrum board to do what you want first, and work from there.

Thanks Nic, I actually wanted to create a project plan with some workflows beyond one test/issue... a reporting process and output structure needs to be re-designed in full, and completed within about 5 weeks, so it's not a typical Agile methodology, with many unknown or incremental improvements, though it will have some minor iterations/adjustments. I need to maintain communications (or links to) within the project.
The project is somewhere between a Scrum and Kanban, in that the overall requirements are fairly fixed as in a Sprint, but requires visualisation of the workflow as in Kanban. I'm not sure which is preferable in this scenario. My current understanding is that creating a board is that the first step to take in managing this on Jira. Would that definitely be right?

Stuart
