Planner FAQ
Can a group have more than one plan?
You can create multiple plans for a group via Planner integration within Microsoft Teams and SharePoint. Microsoft will support creating multiple plans from the Planner web app in the near future. In addition to creating multiple plans per group, you can also consider using tasks and checklists together to plan different workstreams or set up buckets to split up the work.
How do I create a new plan based on an existing one?
This functionality is in development and not yet available in Planner.
How do I close or archive a plan when it's done?
Option 1: Remove yourself from the plan. If you’re not the administrator, you can leave the plan, which removes it from your Planner hub. The plan’s files, tasks, conversations, and other elements are left in place. If you are the plan administrator, you can’t remove yourself from the plan.
Option 2: Delete the plan. If you’re the administrator, you can edit the group to delete the plan. Before you do this, make sure that no one else is using the group for things outside of Planner. There is no way to recover a plan (or its files, conversations, and other data) after it has been deleted. Consider saving the group’s files to another location, and copying any critical information from the group’s conversations and OneNote notebook to another location, before deleting the group.
Can I print plans or tasks in Planner?
You can’t print plans or tasks from Planner yet.
Where are the files kept in Planner?
Planner plans are associated with Office 365 Groups, and the files for Office 365 Groups are stored in an associated SharePoint document library. To find your Planner files, select the three dots to the right of the plan name (…), then choose Files.
