Automatically add tasks to a Planner bucket grouped by theme
For a Planner plan configured for a team/group, Decisions will by default add "bucket" based on the meeting name and date, but if you create additional "buckets" in the same Planner plan, and use a topic name. Tasks created in that team/group that has the "topic name" in the title, will automatically be assigned to those "buckets"
For example: Task: Remember to update strategy deck will automatically be placed in the Planner plan bucket Strategy
See when document was added by someone else or updated
After an Agenda has been published, and a user has viewed it once, they will see green or blue indications on attachements that have been updated or added since the last viewed the agenda
Create meeting and agenda draft without sending invite from Teams
If you want to finalize building the Agenda before you send the invite, you can either use Decisions for Outlook or you can create a calendar event in Teams and only invite yourself first. Then create the Agenda and publish it, before you add other participants to the meeting. That way, when they get the invitation, it already include the link to the Agenda.
Custom Buttons
For a meeting series in a team/group, you can add Custom Buttons on top of the Agenda. These buttons are custom links to files, folders, or webpages, and are persistent across meeting Agendas in that team/group. If you have project folder, a data dashboard, or an app you use for that meeting series - participants can then easily navigate to it from the agenda
