The new Microsoft Planner: What’s new and what’s coming next + AMA

[@mickp10]

Drop down metadata filtering: enable some SharePoint List functionality into planner. For example choose only to show ros with certain metadata. Also be able to search for any information in your plan, not just in the heading.

Assigned to Me kanban board: please bring back feature. Great way to view all your Plans and Planner Premium plans by plan or project.

Integration of of PMBoK process and knowledge areas into Planner Premium. Would be great to integrate risk management, constraints, dependencies, issues, actions from meetings, prioritisation etc.

Whiteboard idea boxes turned into Planner tsks and choose Plan to allocate task. Miro enables this for JIRA.

Team - when are we going to get a full Planner Admin Panel?!? Much in the same that we have a SharePoint or Teams Admin panel? And when are we going to be able to create a new plan from an existing plan much like we do in Teams?!? It’s easier to understand that way rather than “copy plan”. The copy plan is STILL needed when you want to copy over everything, but we also need a create new from existing plan. Also @mentions should be available for basic planners and we need better notification options for things like that and integrated into Teams.

My sincere thanks for sharing it.

kinda disappointed that they still didn't give us a clear view of integration with power BI. currently, I'm using MS azure that gets data from planner to power bi for creating reports for meetings. It is working well, but takes a bit of time to transfer data. Also I don't think many people want to go with 3rd parties for the integration, either. I hopefully Planner team brings some direct integration for power bi in the near future.

Can you make Epic's yet, and view it as a single card, with subtasks encapsulated within the Epic card?

Please ensure you are consulting with qualified project managers, program managers (PMBoK, PRINCE2, DevOps, Agile practices (e.g scrum, Kanban, SaFe).
