Hi Jeffries, Nicole M., VBACLE,

Good day, and thank you for articulating your concern.

What you’re seeing is a behavior in Microsoft Teams when working with Tasks (Planner / Viva Tasks).

In Teams, plans such as VBA ART are backed by a Microsoft 365 group. When a user:

• Creates a new plan,
• Becomes the last remaining owner,
• Or performs certain admin actions while assigning tasks,

Teams may automatically assign that user as the plan owner.

This can happen unintentionally while troubleshooting task assignments and doesn’t indicate an error or permissions issue.

You can correct the ownership by assigning the correct owner(s) to the underlying Team or plan:

1. In Teams, go to the Team associated with VBA ART
2. Select More options (⋯) > Manage team
3. On the Members tab:
   • Add the correct owner(s)
   • Optionally remove yourself as owner if you no longer need that role

If you don’t have sufficient permissions, please reach out to a Teams or Microsoft 365 admin to update the owners in the Teams admin center or manage the underlying Microsoft 365 group directly.

I hope this provides enough clarity and helps you stay inform with your current situation.

 

Thank you for your patience and your understanding. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to share them in the comments on this post so I can continue to support you.
