Hello Evan,

 

I have just started using MS Project in Teams for the first time and so far it looks great!

 

I do have a couple of questions if you or one of your colleagues can help or point me in the right direction on:

 

1) Is it possible to open a MS Teams generated project in the desktop application? I have the project plan 3 so already have desktop access, but I can't seem to find a way of opening the Teams project in this way... This would help greatly, so I can save instances of the project (for baselining purposes).

 

2) Is there a way to link MS Project tasks and MS Planner? This would help reviewing workloads by using the 'Chart' view in planner to report task summaries where you can filter views by buckets, assignees etc. MS Project has very limited filtering options in Grid view from what I've seen, and none at all in the timeline view.

 

Thanks!

 

Jordan
