Some To Do entries may be more urgent to resolve than others. A To Do entry is associated with a priority level representing its relative processing order compared to other entries.
Priority level is initially assigned as follows:
If a Calculate Priority plug-in is defined on the To Do entry's type, the system calls it to determine the entry's priority. You may want to use this method if an entry's priority is based on context or time-based factors. For example, when priority takes into consideration account specific attributes. When applicable, you may design a process that triggers priority recalculation of To Do entries "at will". For example, when priority is reassessed periodically based on factors external to the To Do entry's information. Refer to To Do Type for more information on priority calculation algorithms.
If a priority value has not been determined by a plug-in, the system defaults a To Do entry's initial priority to the value specified on its type.
A user may manually override a To Do entry's priority at any time. Notice that once a To Do entry's priority is overridden, Calculate Priority plug-ins are no longer called so as to not override the value explicitly set by the user.
