- Can I store my own templates for later use by others?
- No, but certainly share feedback to help us to prioritize. Copilot may be even better than using templates to get you started. Copy Plan can also be useful here.
- Is it possible to attach a document (word, excel, pdf, etc) to a task in Planner?
- Hi Nathaniel. If your plan has been added to a Microsoft 365 group, you can upload files and attach them to tasks through the task details. Otherwise you can save them to your OneDrive or SharePoint storage and share a link to add to the task. https://support.microsoft.com/office/attach-files-photos-or-links-to-a-task-52c688e1-aeb0-4b49-8d78-42984cd553f7
- Yes, these documents can be attached to the tasks - either in the Group OneDrive, or via a link to somewhere else.
Is there a way to create your own template & make it hardcoded? Meaning, it can not be modified when copied for use?
- No, be sure to let us have feedback and do you feel Copilot helps with creating new plans, as per the video?
- Have you made any functions to "follow" certain tasks in planner and get updated whenever anyone makes a comment or change?
- Can we build own own Organizational templates like we have with SP and other tools?

While we do not have custom organization templates, you can achieve this scenario by creating a plan and sharing it with your organization and they could use it as a template by copying this plan whenever they need it.
- When someone has been assigned to a task, the user would receive notifications of comments from the task, even after the user was removed from the task. Has this been fixed/updated? Thank you
- The behavior hasn't been changed Alex - we have certainly had the feedback before and it is on the backlog for consideration. Further feedback help with prioritization.
- Any plans to add horizontal swim lanes to the Planner view?
- Are there plans to incorporate the ability to have an overview of multiple different projects together - I think this would be incredibly useful (for example I manage 85 different but incredibly similar Projects)
- I would like to schedule tasks on which multiple people need to work. I want to mark it complete, when all have completed their piece. How can I assign that in Planner?

You can try the premium plan functionality and see if it meets your needs. Once you create a premium plan, you can assign a task to multiple people and in the board or people page you can mark each person's assignment as completed. Each person can also go to My Tasks page and do the same. Once everyone marks their own part of the task as completed, the task gets automatically completed. Let us know if this helps.
