Adding Plans for pre-existing SharePoint Team Sites
- Sep 08, 2016
I believe existing sites won't have initially the posibility to have a Group and a Plan...but this could change in the future. By the way, there is not a mechanism to move tasks from tasks lists in SPO to tasks in Planner. cc cfiessinger

jcgonzalezmartin thanks for your reply. A couple of my SharePoint Team sites are really new, so I'm considering deleting them and adding a new Group instead - since these sites only need a document library and a task list - a group would suffice.

Just confirming your thoughts here. Currently there is no way to retrofit so your team sites would have to be either reborn as a group or a "sister" group to the team site could be created.
Use the team site home page for your Project Status updates in an easy findable format but change the local navigation links on the left to point to your group Doc library and planner etc.- AKIMFSep 16, 2016Iron Contributor
There should be a way to upgrade existing teamsites to groups enabled teamsites.
Creating new groups and moving the whole content is in no regard a proper solution.
I cannot find any entry relating to this topic on fasttrack.
Any plans anyone?
