[rt-users] Is it possible to change priority direction

[Ken Crocker]

Simon,

    I concur with Jerrad. We use the numbers 1 thru 5 with 1 being 
emergency, etc. We've been on RT for 3 years and haven't seen any code 
or process that uses any native sequencing of the priority field. I 
believe you can write your own progression and promotion sequences on 
your own in a cron job. Hope this helps.
