    Very comprehensive video and easy to understand. My biggest qualm with adopting this is the fact that Planner cannot handle more in depth projects. It'd be great if you could explain how you would handle one of these type of projects!

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  Год назад +1

      @Mikey J, using the Planner Software definitely has limitations, and primarily is for smaller projects (based on my own experience). When I manage much larger projects, I'll either use MS Project or our organization's Project Management Software System. Great video idea, I'll add it to a future video

    Great Video and great process suggestions. I'm wondering if you know of a setting that is preventing me from creating a unique Planner within each channel? Created Team>>Created 2 additional channels>> Channel 1>>Add Tab>> Planner doesn't appear as an option. It only presents as an option when I'm in the General Channel? Hopefully I'm wording this correctly.

    Awesome video. I use Microsoft teams to manage the finance team and our projects. It's been a game changer to have everything in one place and also to have an audit trail of completed tasks. I want to start using it for mini project planning. Someone else created the channel, but for some reason I can't filter one "words". In my other channels, I can filter "ABC", but on this channel I can only filter on due date, priority, labels, etc...? Any idea what the issue can be?

    Hey Alvin, Nice demonstration. Can we download the entire work as Word or Excel, we have to maintain the progress and other deliverables as a document for review and other purposes, right? Is there any possibility to export or download this details?

    • @alvinthepmofficial
      @alvinthepmofficial  Год назад +2

      Really glad you found the video helpful, Ahsan! When you open up your organization's Planner app using tasks.office.com, you'll see a header menu for "Grid, Board, Charts, Schedule, etc". In this header menu, you can select the option to "Export plan to Excel."

      @@alvinthepmofficial Do you have a video that shows how the files uploaded into the planner are accessible through SharePoint? This is critical for me because I want to be able to open files directly on my PC (not through a browser) without having to download or upload them. I run OneDrive, which sync's the files from my PC to Sharepoint, and I don't want to create an entirely new directory structure somewhere else to keep the exact same files. I'm new to teams and have the same question there. Project files need to live on Sharepoint now buried in a project schedule or teams discussion.

    • @natehutchinson230
      @natehutchinson230 Год назад +1

      None, I actually wouldn’t use channels for projects as channels cannot be archived, whereas the Team can. Using the Team as the project also follows Microsoft ‘flat architecture’ best practice around Teams and SharePoint. So, by all means follow the advice in the video as some of it is great, but don’t use channels for your projects as they can’t be archived and there is a limit as to how many channels you can have in a single Team.
