Customize Planner tasks?
TomA26 It is not possible to include additional fields in Planner. But for your case, "Requested by" is as same as the creator of the task? Also, there is no rich text editor available and not sure if MSFT will provide this. Optionally you can use third-party tools to create and update custom fields in Planner.
SanthoshB1No the person requesting can and most likely will be different from the creator. Can you tell me a trusted vendor for 3rd party tools for customizing?

TomA26 You can try Apps4.Pro Planner Manager for this. I have implemented this same feature for many customers and they are using it successfully in Planner.

This looks like is the 7th most popular request on the uservoice @ https://planner.uservoice.com/forums/330525-microsoft-planner-feedback-forum/suggestions/14704662-option-to-create-custom-fields-for-tasks
Please add any additional comments to that post; hopefully Microsoft will begin to implement this request.

ben_projectThere seems to be a bug in all IE browsers (Chrome works fine!) with the Chart Dashboard page, attached screenshot. Any ideas?
