Assign tasks to multiple users
I need to be able to assign tasks/projects to multiple users.

Thank you for all the feedback. We’ve completed the work to support assigning a task to multiple people, and it is now available for use world wide.
Thanks!

This simply is not a useful piece of software for many/most large organization scenarios until this is implemented correctly. Need to be able to assign a task to multiple users (as many as needed - not just 11 - come on!!). Also, need to be able to assign a single task to multiple users, but have each end user check the task complete separately. That way, we can track who has completed a task, and who has not. Nice start on the software, but this is not ready for ********* yet!

Need more than 11 people - trying to use TEAMS to manage an on-line classroom. At least match what Google classroom can do. FOIPA prevents us from using Google products in Canada.

"Need the task to be considered completed, only when all assignees mark it as completed. This will work as a team approval. Very urgent! Thanks!"
Could not agree more - the current implementation is not enterprise-friendly.

and it could be useful also to be able to create recursive task

Please add the functionality that the each assigned user should be able to close the task instead of one

Is the limit of people who can be assigned to a single task 11 people? If so, is it ever going to go up?

Hello, this functionality could do with some improvement. I would like to be able to have all of the assigned users complete the task, please.

Agree fully with Clint:
Dear Microsoft, this task is not complete to the expectation of Planner users. What is also needed is the ability to assign a single task to be completed by ALL ASSIGNED to the task. For example, I want the members of my leadership team to read a book. Right now if I create that task and one individual completes the task it is complete for all. I need to see each individual complete the task and when all assigned have completed it then the main task is complete. -

Is it possible to remove the limit on number of users assigned to a task?

Needs: 1) Be able to assign to more than 11 ppl. 2) Allow individuals to mark completed when they’ve done their part 3) include an option to assign all members of the group to the task at once, rather than clicking on their names individually (assuming the entire group is no more than 11 at the moment)

Please add the option of "star-marking" one of the assigned persons, so you could see e.g. who is main responsible for this task, i.e. the go-to person to get an update; Can be quite confusing to figure out when there are 5 people assigned to the same task. Make it possible to have different star colors, so we can define e.g. that a yellow star is the "business owner" of a task, and a red star is the "project leader"

This feature is not working/integrated with to-do properly - several people assigned to a task, and if one of those clear the ”to-do” list on their part in to-do app - the whole task gets marked completed for all.
Way around have been de-assigning from the task invidually - but thats not possible from the to-do app.
So please microsoft, when implementing new features think through how it should work through the whole app-verse, like Outlook, To-Do, Planner, ...

Right now, it only allows you to add up to 11 people to a task. This should unlimited. Also, if there was a way to select everyone in the group and mass add them to the task instead of having to select one by one would be a major time saver.
