This article is for students, faculty, and staff who wish to create a new planner in Planner. Planner is a task management feature compatible with Teams that allows a team site to create Plans containing the team's tasks.
Any member of a team can create a Planner for their team.
To create a new Planner:
Click the Teams icon in the left panel.
Open the team you want the new Planner to be created in.
Click the + icon underneath the search bar.
Type planner into the search bar.
Select the Planner icon.
Select Create a new plan and name the Planner.
If you choose Use an existing plan from this team, you will not be creating a new Planner. Instead, you will be adding a tab that links to the existing Planner.
Choose whether you would like to share the creation of the new Planner to the team channel.
Press Save.
A link to this Planner will appear in the tab list at the top of the team page (under the search bar).
