it is essential to present tasks clearly

00:00:08

and navigate easily between the different elements of your plan.

00:00:13

In this module,

00:00:14

you will learn how to add buckets.

00:00:17

Reorganize content.

00:00:19

Filter and group tasks,

00:00:21

perform targeted searches,

00:00:23

and explore the views offered by planner to make tracking your work easier.

00:00:30

Start by creating a bucket in the board view,

00:00:34

click on add a bucket.

00:00:38

Enter a relevant name,

00:00:39

for example,

00:00:40

marketing and communication,

00:00:43

then confirm

00:00:44

your new compartment appears immediately.

00:00:47

If you need to change the order of the compartments,

00:00:50

simply drag and drop to the desired position.

00:00:55

Another option is to click on more options,

00:00:58

the three dots.

00:01:00

You can then move to the right or move to the left,

00:01:04

rename

00:01:05

or delete the compartment as needed.

00:01:08

Each compartment contains tasks that you can reorganize just as easily,

00:01:15

select the task,

00:01:17

drag it and drop it where you want.

00:01:20

The list instantly updates to reflect your priorities.

00:01:25

When the board starts to get crowded,

00:01:28

use the filter located in the upper right corner.

00:01:32

Planner allows you to filter by due date,

00:01:35

priority,

00:01:36

progress,

00:01:37

label,

00:01:38

compartment,

00:01:39

or assignment.

00:01:41

Choose for example progress.

00:01:44

In progress,

00:01:45

a number appears on the icon

00:01:47

to indicate the number of active criteria,

00:01:50

and only the tasks matching these criteria remain visible.

00:01:54

You can naturally combine several filters.

00:01:57

Add,

00:01:57

for example,

00:01:58

the urgent label,

00:02:00

and the indicator immediately changes from 1 to 2.

00:02:05

To return to the full display,

00:02:07

open the filter and click on clear all.

00:02:11

Your board is by default grouped by compartments.

00:02:14

However,

00:02:15

other groupings are available in the menu group by assignment,

00:02:18

progress,

00:02:19

due date,

00:02:20

label,

00:02:20

or priority.

00:02:23

Select for example progress.

00:02:26

The column titles changed to not started in Progress and Completed,

00:02:31

providing a clear snapshot of the plan's progress.

00:02:36

The search bar at the top of the

00:02:38

page is useful for quickly finding specific information.

00:02:42

Simply type a keyword.

00:02:44

Here we'll search for the title of a task,

00:02:47

and planner will display only the corresponding items.

00:02:53

To improve visualization,

00:02:55

planner offers several views.

00:02:57

Board

00:02:58

column display is open by default.

00:03:01

It's ideal for tracking compartments and associated cards.

00:03:06

Grid presents tasks in a table format

00:03:09

with rows and columns similar to a spreadsheet,

00:03:13

convenient for comparing multiple fields at a glance.

00:03:18

Scheduling displays your tasks on a timeline to visualize dependencies

00:03:23

and anticipate date overlaps.

00:03:25

Chart summarizes progress in the form of a diagram.

00:03:29

You will see,

00:03:30

for example,

00:03:31

the distribution of priorities,

00:03:33

overdue tasks,

00:03:35

or workloads by person.

00:03:39

We will detail each of these views in a dedicated module

00:03:43

so that you can choose the perspective best suited to your goals.

00:03:48

You now know how to structure your plan,

00:03:50

apply smart filters,

00:03:52

and choose the display that best showcases your data.

00:03:56

In the next module,

00:03:58

we will see how to synchronize planner with outlook.
