Priorities are used to indicate the relative importance of an issue. Identifying priorities among issues helps determine where a particular issue figures into the larger issue queue and how soon the issue might be addressed. Auto Assignments, Issue Subscriber Lists, and Workflows can also be triggered by the priority value selected on an issue.
