Backlog items created in random order when created from Board View

Hi All,

I have a nicely prioritised backlog with a set order.

When new items are added to the backlog using the backlog view we have the option to "Add to bottom" which I use and then put the item into the correct position within the backlog order after creation.

However, when creating a PBI from the board view it seems to be automatically randomly added into the backlog.

I have tried to set the priority when creating the PBI from the board view but for some reason it is still randomly assigned. For example, on the board view I create a PBI with a priority of 1. When i switch to the backlog view the item is randomly assigned in the middle of some prirotiy 3 items.

Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can ensure that new PBIs created from the board view are assigned to the bottom of the backlog order when switching back to the backlog view?

Many Thanks
Chris
