Working collaboratively on opportunities and leads means there are tasks that must be completed by multiple team members. Creating new tasks, assigning these tasks, and completing them is critical to the overall success of customer engagements. Activity management in Dynamics 365 Sales provides an efficient way to manage and assign tasks across the team to ensure harmony.

As part of our commitment to simplifying experiences across the product, we are introducing enhancements to activity management. These improvements offer productive and intuitive ways to manage tasks across the team, offering sellers peace of mind knowing that team tasks are organized, prioritized, and delivered.
