From Teams planner, there was a function to add comments and timestamps to a task. this would also automatically generate an email and send to assigned owners. I converted this over to a Premium planner but this function has disappeared.. anyone know how I can get this back?

Hi Kelly, I had the same issue a while ago. Comments don't work in the same way, but I believe you need to attach a premium planner to a team or group and it then the comment feature appears as posts on a channel. That was what was described to be. From memory without this the comment feature doesn't even appear.
