Groups
When I add people to a specific plan, it automatically adds them to all my other plans under that group. Is there a way to invite people to single plans only? Do I have to create new groups for each event/plan? My job is currently in the early stages of adopting planner. As a result, admin has turned off new group creation without going through a request process...so creating multiple new groups could be tedious!
margaretdodge unfortunately, that's how Planner was designed and the Dev team has made zero indications that they're planning to change this anytime soon
- You must be a M365 Group member to view and edit a board
- All group members have access to ALL plans within the group; you cannot limit access on a user-by-user basis
- There are virtually no data-loss prevention tools within Planner; that means if someone edits or deletes tasks, lists or entire boards - you are SOL.
My recommendation is to look at Microsoft Lists to manage your projects if you need to manage permissions. Either that or a 3rd-party tool.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I wish Planner was better than this but it simply isn't and quite frankly, I'm starting to think it never will be.
