Flag Follow Up Date - Outlook for web

On Outlook for web can you set a specific follow up date? I only get today, tomorrow, this week, next week, no date. There’s no custom option where I can set a particular date. I can do this in the desktop app but not for web and have users who rely on the web interface.

Anyone know where to do this?

Thanks
  • Mondas  Yeah, there is not a custom flag option in Outlook on the web. You'd need to add it as a task to set a specific due date or reminder.

      What a ridiculous feature omission - I have professionally supported 'Office' applications since the '95 version, and I can say that back in the day, we would have pushed back hard on the PG to not remove such a useful and commonly used feature.  The Outlook team is heading in the wrong direction, and it is still one of the most used applications.
