Prioritization

A faster, more transparent experience for your team and collaborators.

Prioritizing the backlog

A backlog can be prioritized by dragging and dropping issues to the top and bottom. To drag an issue, hover over the issue in a table view.

Issues at the top of the backlog are the highest priority, while issues at the bottom are the lowest.

You can also right-click on an issue when in a table view and click on Move to top or Move to bottom.

Prioritization is disabled when viewing the backlog in a list view.

Prioritizing workstreams

Individual workstreams can be prioritized in the same way as the backlog – by dragging and dropping issues to the top and bottom. You can also right-click on an issue in a workstream and click on Move to top or Move to bottom.

In workstreams, issues will have an associate number ranking. Issues at the top of the workstream are the highest priority, while issues at the bottom are the lowest.

The backlog and each workstream can be prioritized independently. Prioritization of an issue in the backlog will not affect its prioritization in a workstream, and vice versa.

Why does prioritization matter?

Prioritization of the backlog and workstreams will impact which issues are added to upcoming sprints when auto-planning sprint candidates. The highest priority issues will be added first.
