To start your project plan with Planner, open a new document in your favorite tool and
simply give your project a name.
![Page 2: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Once your project has a name, decide what to call your “top deliverable”, or “that one
thing that your project will produce”.
![Page 3: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Once you’ve named your top deliverable, you can give it a start date.
![Page 4: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Once you have named your top deliverable, list the deliverables that will support your top deliverable. Your “supporting deliverables” will contribute to or lead up to
your top deliverable.
![Page 5: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Once you have a good (small) list of supporting deliverables, put those that can be started right away in “Phase 1”. Put the
supporting deliverables that have to wait in Phase 2. And so on. You can split a supporting deliverable into two parts when you have to wait for the first part to be done but not the second.
![Page 6: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Once your supporting deliverables are arranged by phase, create an activity for each one. Each activity
should produce one supporting deliverable.
![Page 7: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Once each supporting deliverable has an activity, list the tasks that will be done within each activity. Once your
tasks are in, you will load your plan content into Planner and “take a look”.
![Page 8: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Once your tasks are “in”, you can load your content into your Planner Blender App. Planner is a Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet, so you simply need to open it.
![Page 9: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Upon opening Planner for the first time, you see a big blue reminder to “Enable Content” or “Enable
Macros” – this goes away.
![Page 10: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Once you enable macros in Planner, you'll see the Personal Edition license agreement and
copyright notice.
![Page 11: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Once Planner is open, you'll notice that some sample content is in the Outline Column –
that’s ok, we're about to replace it.
![Page 12: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
With Planner spreadsheet open, switch back to your outline in MS Word and copy your entire
outline to the clipboard.
![Page 13: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Once your outline is in the clipboard, you can switch back over to Planner.
![Page 14: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Once back in Planner, with your outline in the clipboard, click the button “Click to Paste Clipboard”.
Your outline will appear in the Outline Column.
![Page 15: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Once your outline is loaded into Planner, check the “Progress (w Phases)” tab to see your plan,
with dates.
![Page 16: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The “Progress (w Phases)” view shows your plan, with dates. Your tasks are all red because we haven't updated them with progress – we'll
fix that in a little bit.
![Page 17: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Next, we'll put all the tasks that can be worked on first in “Step 1”, and the ones that have to wait in “Step 2”, and so on -- like
we organized our supporting deliverables by phase
![Page 18: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Now that our tasks are organized by step, we'll set a duration (in days) for each task, and also assign an
owner.
![Page 19: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Finally, we'll update our tasks with progress to date (also called “% complete”).
![Page 20: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Now we can copy our updated outline into the clipboard again and switch back to our Planner
spreadsheet.
![Page 21: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Back in Planner, we've clicked the “Paste Clipboard” button and our updated outline appears.
![Page 22: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
On the Progress tab, we can see that our completed tasks are green and our “slightly behind” tasks are yellow.
![Page 23: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
We can focus on the yellow tasks by selecting “yellow” from the color selector.
![Page 24: Planner blender app deck.psv1104b complete](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042700/5599e4f71a28ab547a8b45f5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
If we want to share this yellow task with the owner, we can simply paste this view into an
email and send.
