Set and update task progress

Sharing out task progress doesn't have to involve complicated calculations. In Planner, it's simple. Tasks can be:

  • Not started    

  • In progress     In Progress

  • Completed     The completed icon

Sometimes you may need more than simple task progress:

Done with a task?

To quickly mark one of your tasks as Completed, point to it and select the check mark.

Click the checkmark to complete a task

Using a touch screen? If you're not using a mouse, you won't see the check box to mark something as completed. Instead, check out a few other ways to update progress.

Tip: Completed tasks are hidden at the bottom of the task list. Scroll down and choose Show completed.
