Allowing multiple people to select yes or no in a column on a list

I'm looking to be able to allow multiple people to select "Yes" in a column once they've completed something on a list I've assigned them to, this can be whichever format so toggle, drop-down etc. So a team of 10 people, I'll assign the list to each of them with ten tasks to complete, each of the team can then click yes to each one of the tasks down the "Completed?" column so I'd be able to see 10 "Yes" or say 8 "Yes" and 2 people still not answered for each task (Work), so 100 in total saying but obviously for each task it'd be 10 "Yes". Then ideally I'd like to be able to see who out of the ten hasn't clicked "Yes" on each of the tasks so I can check up with them but I'm assuming I'd find that on how it's grouped on the next tabs anyway so that bits fine. I've tried all sorts and I'm not getting anywhere. I have just used AI Assist to answer my question but I'm a bit out of my depth as I have tried it on SharePoint but it didn't work - should I be doing something on DataVerse - not sure what this is?

    Based on your post, I understand that you want to collect information about users' tasks completion status.

    Here are two methods for you:

    1.Use versioning history to check users' tasks completion status.

    (1)Create a choice with 10 "Yes" values and allow multiple selections.

    (2)Select the item -> Check versioning history.

    2.Create another list to collect information about the user completing the task.

    (1)Create a choice column named Tasks with values about task names.

    (2)Create a choice column named Completed with "Yes" or "No" values.

    (3)After users record tasks completion status, select Task column, click Group by Task.

    To allow multiple people to select "Yes" in a column on a list, you can use a multi-select column called "Choices" in Microsoft Dataverse. This allows users to select multiple values from a predefined list. You can set up a column for each task where team members can indicate completion by selecting "Yes."

    For example, you could create a "Completed?" column with options like "Yes" and "No." Each team member can then select "Yes" for the tasks they have completed. This setup would allow you to see how many "Yes" responses each task has received and identify who has not responded.

    You can also design forms that include these choices columns, allowing users to easily submit their responses. Additionally, you can track the responses and see who hasn't clicked "Yes" on each task.
