How to use Microsoft Planner

Find out all about Tasks in Microsoft Teams, which combines Planner together with To Do: https://youtu.be/FJaICKh5kR8

This was exactly what i needed! I've used both applications, but didn't know how to link the 2. Quick and easy tutorial. Great work!

I love the way Kevin's calm and pleasant voice explains these videos - he's definitely the best tutor / tutorials I've seen. Keep up the great work Kevin :)

Really appreciate your videos! It is easy to understand and thorough enough to cover all the essential basic to let us kick start with experimenting.Thanks!

Such a great tutorial. We are trying to implement a business process with multiple phases and tasks underneath each. Thank you, Kevin.

Thanks for the video, Kevin. My team has been using Planner via Teams since 2020. We track our projects by year. The problem we've run into is that some of our projects (cards) have more than one asset to it. Rather than creating a separate task/card for each asset (some can be as many as 96 different social media graphics for one project), we've been using a Label called "Multiple Assets" and add the number of total assets a particular card has in its name. For example: Project A - 5 would show that this project has 5 assets to it that we want to count at the end of the year. So, when we go to the Charts tab, it will show the number of projects in that channel/tab, however it won't add up the individual assets for a card into the total number. So, if my team has completed 10 projects, the Chart tab will show that. But, if two of the cards have multiple assets (such as Project A - 5 and Project B - 5), the Chart tab won't show that we've actually completed 19 projects. I have to manually count the total number of assets for that year. Does that make sense? Is there a way to count all assets without making a separate task for each item?

गुरुर्ब्रह्मा गुरुर्विष्णुः गुरुर्देवो महेश्वरः 🙏जयगुरुदेव 🙏 Very well explained 🙏

Nice. Thanks! Didn't know this existed even though we've been on teams for a while now.

Thank you very much! Didn’t know this existed & I’m a post it person. This is going to change my life, and your video is the cliffs notes. I’m exhausted in bed, it’s late and this actually inspires me to want to get up and set it up! TY TY TY!!

I submitted a proposal to job that I have no idea what I am getting into lol. I've worked as an Office 365 support back in 2018-19 and I think your videos can really help get up to speed. I just subscribed to your channel and I hope that you upload more videos related to Office 365.

Great video. I love how all of these applications link together. One thing I would like to see in Planner is a dependency relationship where completion of one task triggers a notification to the owner of next task in line.

Thank you Kevin! Shout out from Redmond. Great info on Planner. I love this app. Thanks so much for sharing your brain.

Great illustration of how to organize projects in Teams!

My school is using Microsoft through and through. Your videos really helped me to start the Microsoft ecosystem. Thank you!

Great video Kevin! Planner is a great tool, and I enjoy working with it. Would love the ability to see who completed subtasks when multiple people are assigned to a single task (something like the person's profile with time/date stamp). Would love the ability to use the @ symbol to message someone specifically when multiple people are assigned to a task. This would eliminate other team members from being emailed on correspondence about the task that do not directly require their attention. They can always review the dialog from the task board but not be bothered with emails. Hope Microsoft will consider this. Looking forward to more useful features within Planner. Thanks!

Just wanted to quickly stop by and say thank you very much for this great video.

Your way of explanation is really awesome and to the point. Love your videos. Thanks for uploading.

Thanks Kevin, It was really very informative.... We are going up with Planner next week and this will give me a boost to prepare an SOP.

Seriously, you're a great teacher!

Thanks for the video Kevin it really helped, and I saw your reply on my last comment I just wanted to say thank you for supporting my youtube channel.
