Project for the web: Add existing Planner capabilities (e.g. document attachments, checklists, priority)
Add existing Planner capabilities to the task details of Project for the Web (e.g. document attachments, checklists, priority, comments). Also @mentioning as new feature would be great.

Hi everyone!
There are a lot of asks in this thread, and I wanted to assure you we are looking at all of them. As an update, I wanted to share what items are “planned” in the shorter term. This includes Teams Integration, Attachments, Notifications, Group By “Assigned To”. We are also “in development” for Custom Fields- which will allow you to create a Priority field. Other asks on this thread are a bit farther out to share details on, so don’t worry – we are evaluating everything you’re asking for!
Please continue to share your feedback!

Would really like to see pretty much a merging of the two applications. Couple of example's I would like to see. The note's part be visible in the 'Grid' view as a column. The ability to comment on tasks similar to how comments can be added to the Planner tasks. Ability to Label the Project tasks, and add a Priority to tasks. I would really like the same/similar filtering to be brought to all three tabs.
I really enjoy the simplicity and easy of access through teams currently available. Just hard to completely commit to until more features are added. -

Please merge with the Planner team and rebrand, the slow development speed on P4W is starting to get frustrating, on this pace i can make my customers happy in 2022, while most of the functionality is allready there.

How do I vote for this x3,000? Project + Planner = Awesome. Maybe just consolidate the two? Not sure why these two apps are standalone. Anyway, I like the direction MS is moving on both of these.

It would be 'better' to integrate Planner into Project for Web, then this goes away.
It is not simply about the functionality, but using Planer for group task management, you can't do this with Project for Web. If I assign a Planner task to someone, they are informed and can access it. If I do the same in Project nothing happens.
One single Project/Task mgt platform is what we want - look at Wrike

I'd really like to be able to comment/chat on each task like in Planner (or other PM tools like Smartsheet).

I'm very disappointed that I can't create a P4W and similar to Planner, simply:
1 - assign it to a TEAM Channel Tab
2 - when assigning someone to a Task, it automatically shows in one's Outlook tasks
3 - attach files
4 - write comments -

Checklists please! And hopefully more than 20 which is the limit for Planner

I am not sure what there is to think about! I thought this was going to be planner with dependencies, it is disappointing to see a loss in functionality.

All planner features are necessary. Additionally: Paste (eg. Printscreen) to Task-Notes and communication (is also in planner not working for now).

Comments that are linked to outlook, such as in planner, its weird that Project doesn´t have all the features that Planner has. It should be an improvement, but it lacks basic things that are already running well in planner.

This needs a complete rethink - the frustration I have now where I'm trying to use Planner and Project is driving me to now want to use either. I have multiple small projects in planner that could use the functionality in Project 1. However because of the following I'm considering ditching both:
1) I can't migrate a project from Planner to Project
2) Project 1 doesn't have the Planner functionalityI was excited that Project 1 was being released, and have touted this to multiple colleagues, however it's now dead in the water for me due to the lack of functionality and lack of interoperability with other 365 elements (Planner/Teams/Sharepoint etc).
The ideal situation for me would be that the Project 1 elements were a bolted on (paid for if you must) enhancement to Planner, providing a greater level of control and planning capability:
- Gantt
- List
- Roadmap
- DependenciesWhy this wasn't the first vision for this is testament to the disconnection between the Planner and Project teams in MS

The Planner capabilities I'd most like to see are Comments and Checklist. We use these all the time to facilitate collaboration in Planner and they will help make P4W more useful. Thanks.

We need comments, @mentions, checklists. This looks like planner with gantt and resources. I did this manage to lose features...
This should not be a think about. It should have been shipped with these features.
