issue with searching JIRA IDs

sarabu sriharsha

While searching for issues in JIRA, its automatically sorting the JIRA IDs which I dont want. Is there are way to retain the order as is. Example below:

Searches for:

Issue in ( 3,5,1,2,6,7,9,8,4)

I want the result to show as below with list of issues:

instead it shows the O/P as:

The order you see issues in is determined by any "order" clause you use in your filter, or if you don't put one in, it'll be the issue key.

There is no "order by the order I entered things into an "in ()" statement in the filter"

thats the problem. I have thousands of issues which are ordered in a specific priorrity and want to retain the order when I search. This is a limitation in Jira then

I'm not sure I'd call it a "limitation" - I've never heard anyone ask for anything remotely like that before. Everyone working with Jira likes that the issue navigator can sort by whatever field they find relevant at the time, and that boards and backlogs can be ranked.

I think you have a clumsy way of trying to prioritise your issues here, especially as when you resolve an issue or add a new one, you would have to manually adjust your filters.

What do you really want to sort by? (An answer of "my chosen order" is perfectly valid here, but leads to an answer of "use ranking in Jira Software" which you may not have)

WYSWYG is important a system should not assume that the user would like to sort and apply it. While I like the feature, at least it should give an option. For certain reasons ( which I cant disclose ) I need to retain the order in which I query.
