If it is approved, an item is added to a SharePoint list to track the completed tasks for reporting purposes and a message is posted to Teams notifying them of the task being successfully completed. If it is rejected, a message is posted in Teams alerting them to take further action on the task and contact the PM or stakeholder for more information.<\/p>\n<p>This Flow is useful because often on project, someone wants to be notified when a task is marked as complete. This Flow also gives them the chance to approve or reject the task being marked as complete. Also, as a sidenote, some users may have a business need to store completed Planner tasks in a SharePoint list for reporting purposes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>To begin building the Flow choose <strong>Create from blank<\/strong>.
