Who's doing what across different plans
We've tried and then stopped using Planner at least 3 times in our organisation - we've been impressed with the progress but each time been limited by a few key features. We really like the integration with To-do as this solves one of our concerns that an individual couldn't easily prioritise their tasks from different plans. Although there are still some different features between Planner Tasks and To-do Tasks e.g. start date, priority One of the key concerns I've heard from my colleagues and clients I work with is: A team member may be a member of several plans and a manager would like to see how busy they are across different plans to decide whether to assign them a task. Is there a way for a manager to see the tasks assign for each member?1KViews1like1CommentRoadmap
Thanks for the great innovations that are being launched for PowerPoint! As a trainer and consultant we get a fantastic response to the recent innovations like Design Ideas, Summary Zoom, 3D objects, Reuse slides, Subtitles, Recording and more. It would be really useful if the PowerPoint team could please update the Microsoft 365 Roadmap. There are new features that are announced but I can't find a way of keeping track of when they're actually going to be released. A typical case in point was the Presenter Coach. Great tool, announced very early on but we had to keep checking on its launch date. At the moment it's Live Presentations. It looks amazing, there's a video on YouTube about it and documentation.But it's not on the Roadmap, can you please update it? Keep up the great work.525Views0likes0CommentsPower BI for Education
When Power BI first came out you could share dashboards with the free plan. Now it's £7.50 per month per user to have the ability to share data even if on A3 or A5 licenses. But that's what an education institution needs - shared data dashboards! Some schools I know were using it have reverted back to spreadsheets because of the cost.Any one had experience with overcoming this?Solved5.8KViews2likes1CommentFlow for Education
Flow is fantastic for education, great for things like document approvals, speeding up personal productivity, managing social media. But once institutions start using it they can soon run out of free runs per month. The pricing is very hefty too £4 per user per month from what I can see and it only gives you an additional 2,500runs per month. Is there a way that Education Institutions can get many more flows? Can someone at Microsoft please provide feedback internally? This appears to be the same even if they are paying for a3 or a5 licenses.743Views3likes0CommentsEditing with Learning Tools
The Learning Tools are fantastic. It's great to see them included in Word desktop now which means they can be used whilst editing too! Unfortunately the page colours are limited to None, Inverse and Sepia. Is the plan for the full range of colours to be included?1KViews1like0CommentsTeams for Education space
There is a Space for discussion here in the "Education Sector" Community for "Classroom" but nothing for Teams, nor is there an Education Space in the "Teams" Community I and many others have many questions about the use of Teams in Education and specific education features such as Assignments. Where are we best to post them?Solved7.7KViews6likes11CommentsOffice Online: Versioning + Undo
I've been running training recently on Office Online - Word Online, Excel Online and PowerPoint Online. A couple of questions I've had I'm keen to clarify: How often does versioning of documents happen with auto-saving. If i keep working on a document in Word Online, how often will it create a new version? Is this the same in each tool - i.e. Word, Excel and PowerPoint Online? Can this be changed? Is it different in SharePoint to OneDrive? How many undo steps are available i.e. How many times can I keep pressing undo? Is this the same in each tool? Is there any interrelationship between the two?Solved4.1KViews0likes3CommentsLinks with Outlook
I've used Outlook tasks for many years and become familiar with many of the advanced features including integration with OneNote. Of recent times I've been frustrated with access to tasks on mobile devices and turned to third-party solutions to access them. Now there's a cross platform app - it's fantastic! I can see the same tasks in Outlook and in To-Do, and the different lists appear in Outlook too! Is there a way to view the tasks in "My Day" in Outlook?1.3KViews1like1CommentForms: Print Summary error
It's great that we can now print a summary of the form responses. I have found however, when the results go onto more than one page, the subsequent results do not print - I've tried a variety of browsers and printers. I could attach examples but you won't be able to see anything 😉 Anyone else having the same issue? Any ideas Nakul Madaan?2.1KViews1like2Comments
