Every ticket and incident has a (required) priority.
Though INCIDENTS ships with some default priorities, you can rename existing priorities and add your own priorities, in order to customize INCIDENTS to fit your organization's processes.
For example, you might add a Critical
priority, in addition to the default priorities. Or you may choose to follow a P0
/P1
/P2
scheme.
Visit Admin > Priorities
to rename/add priorities.
Only admins will see the Admin
dropdown in the top navigation bar. Only admins can rename/add priorities.
By default, your priority options are:
- Low
- Medium
- High
The default priorities are highlighted in tables in the web UI; custom priorities are not.
You can't delete priorities in INCIDENTS for the same reason you can't delete statuses: deleting a priority would delete all incidents and tickets that have that priority.
Instead, you could rename a priority to add [don't use]
or [disabled]
at the end of the priority's name.
