FluentPro Integration Hub: Integrate Project and Planner to drive successful outcomes
** Email us at [email protected] if you need help with your planning **
INTRODUCTION
Why is the integration of Microsoft Project & Microsoft Planner important? To make your projects more and project teams successful. The ultimate goal is to improve project delivery success, improve return on project investments, and improve organizational performance.
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT HERE?
If you are responsible for something, it means that you own the assigned task or work.
If you are accountable for it, it means that you are answerable for the outcome.
Another way of thinking about this is that you know you have the work to do and you update your progress so that others know you’ve done the work.
The Project Manager uses Microsoft Project to create a schedule and assign work to people.
But how does the PM publish the work so that the team members each know what to do, and how does each team member let the PM know their status?
This raises two possible situations. In the first, you just need your team members to see the assignment you’ve created in the project, and you simply want them to tell you if they’ve started, and if they’ve finished. This is a great situation for using the Project to Planner integration.
In the second, you need your team members to give you more accurate details like how many hours they’ve spent on the work, the percent complete, or the hours of work remaining. In this case there are other solutions like timesheets and timecards. Email us at [email protected] and we can collaborate on your requirements and help you get the right solution.
The FluentPro Integration Hub is the easy and quick way to integrate tasks between Microsoft Project and Planner. The use case here is that the Project Manager creates the plan with some simple configuration to integrate with Planner and assigns tasks. The Integration Hub creates the plan in Planner and assigns the work. Each team member uses the Planner, maybe inside Microsoft Teams or with the Planner App on their mobile device to update the activities, and even to add tasks into the project. The Integration Hub synchronizes the progress back to Project, where the PM can republish the plan with the updates.
It’s easy and fast.
