We use Planner to track tasks related to a specific type of business strategy. We have a Backlog bucket and would like to take advantage of capabilities to re-order tasks in the bucket to prioritize in what order tasks should move out of the backlog.
Today, we must manually order the position of tasks in a bucket. It would be great if Planner had the capability to bulk re-order tasks, similar to how column positioning is performed for SharePoint lists.
Is bulk re-ordering on the roadmap for Planner?
Thanks -PT

@Pat_Tepen alternately, you can use categories in the tasks and group by the categories. Have you tried it previously?

@SanthoshB1 Hi Santhosh - thanks for the reply.
If I understand correctly, the term category and label are synonymous. We currently utilize the max labels available for filtering and grouping purposes. It would be great if a future Planner capability would include something like this.
Bucket
Task Name | Position from Top [current position in Bucket displayed, with the option to re-order] |
Task A | 1 |
Task B | 2 |
Task C | 3 |
Task D | 4 |
Task E | 5 |
etc | etc |
