HI,

Jobs contain Panels. Panels contain boards. You need to add your placements on the board tab, even if you only have one board in your job

The green tab, not the red tab.

Just for everyone's information, if you have only one copy of a board in the job (and it's not part of a panel), then you CAN edit it from the Job tab. In this particular case, there are multiple copies of the same board in the job, so the placements are not editable there because the meaning is somewhat ambiguous - do you mean to edit the placement only on the one particular board or on all copies of the board?
