Possibility to sort by priority and ranks together for Backlog in boards and possibility change rank

[Oksana Baier]

Hi!
I try to find possibility for Backlog in boards

We have backlog and list of tasks is sorted by rank. We can change drag and drop tasks and change ranks for it

But we need sort by priority and ranks together
And have a possibility toi change ranks too

Can we made it?

Hi @Oksana Baier,

Ordering by rank is unique (each issue has its own rank) and it doesn't make sense to also trying to combine that with any other ranking system. The uniqueness of the ranking always overrules the other and is required if you want to manually reorder issues.

However, on top of ranking, you could set up swimlanes on your by priority: in board settings -> swimlanes select queries to base your swimlanes on and then set up queries for separate priorities there.

Hope this helps!

I think there is a simple solution to this ask:

ORDER BY priority DESC, Rank ASC

This would allow ranking within the same priority.

@Elisabeta Kozak  is it wokring for you , i am not being able to use it.

@Anush Chatikyan No, it's not, since unfortunately JIRA disables drag and drop if you edit the board's filter ordering,


even though you add ranking too:

Yeah, that's exactly the same what i got, how to get the think worked as we expect, i do not know, but it's really something that we need.
