Assign checklist item to specific individuals
This would be great to have when it's a bigger task that has several folks working on specific elements of it.

Please include dates and assignments to checklist items.
Also increase the number of allowable checklist items

This tool will not truly work for us - coordinating activity across multiple departments and teams with multiples deadlines - unless we can add subtasks to tasks, assign them to individuals and add due dates.

This requirement goes a long way in adoption across our org and partners (guests on the plan)

Also using a third-party tool instead of planner, due to the lack in this functionality.
With Trello you can assign a responsible to a checklist item AND give checklist items deadlines!!

How do we get this moved up in priority? This is really one of the only reasons I don't use Microsoft Planner and use a third-party tool.

This is a major barrier to MS Planner being utilised in our organisation and it is likely we will need to look to another solution to do this.
Any indiciation if this will be developed and what timeline that might be?

As many have stated previously, assigning checklist items (or sub-tasks) would be extremely beneficial for teams. Sometimes a project has several large tasks that require multiple people to complete and being able to assign the individual pieces of work to individuals allows us to better track our work.

This now makes Planner the right solution for those who can't, shouldn't and won't use/buy MS Project

This is critical functionality. One task can be performed by several people and their responses shall be tracked individually.

Assigning sub-tasks to individuals is a crucial requirements for us. As you have received over 503 votes to get this feature developed, I think it is time to get it done. After verifying on the Microsoft Roadmap for Items for Planner, there are only 4 items on the development roadmap. I have encouraged our internal staff to user Planner over Asana but, lacking this functionality will prevent many of our users to adopt Planner.

The lack of assigning a checklist item to a specific person is keeping us with Asana as well.

Please provide some indication of when this will be added on the roadmap, as without checklist task assignment, adoption of planner is a nonstarter for us. Asana has had this for years.

Sub tasks is an absolute must have. I’ve even tried setting up different buckets for projects but you can’t see the bucket name in the schedule. It’s about as much use as a chocolate fire guard.

Cannot believe such important feature was missing since 2016....
