Schedule reoccurring tasks.
Add the ability to schedule tasks every day, every Wednesday, every last Friday of the month etc...

Hello! Since this is one of our top asks from users (and has been for quite a while), we wanted to provide a quick update here. As mentioned in our last update, our team has been heads down shipping some recent integrations, such as the Tasks app in teams and Tasks in Docs (both of which have initial versions rolling out now!).
Recurring tasks (and the other top UserVoice asks) are still high on our backlog. I’ll provide updates here as this feature gets closer to being shipped! We also may use this forum to reach out to you, our engaged users, with design questions we have—so stay tuned if you’d like to help us bring you the best version of recurring tasks!
In the meantime, it’s great to see so much active engagement here. We continue to iterate on our initial designs as we get more feedback from users, so keep it coming!

This would be a basic must have feature at our company too. Please work on it, and implement it soon!

Please provide an update to this highly sought after feature!! I would very much like to see it behave similarly to the tasks in Outlook where it can recreate for every x days/weeks/years or regenerate a new task feature so as not to have a backlog of incompletes.

All we want is re-occurring tasks and a time on the due date. It's so simple.

I've seen comments from Microsoft on other threads concerning this feature stating "coming in November 2019" and then one "look for this in the summer of 2020". When delayed there is usually a "high on our backlog" comment. Perhaps other features have 100,000 votes to make this one continually slip down the lists. I agree with all the other comments that this feature is a must to make this tool truly functional in managing teams and their deliverables.

How is the status of this implementation? is it close to achieving? without this feature, Planner is not very powerful at all.

If everyone leaves a comment in the Microsoft Teams user feedback forum, we can get attention, since the Planner team seams to be inactiv
