Understanding Task Prioritization in CHT

Technical Support Development
1

Can we assume that any task due today or marked as high priority will appear at the top of the task list?

If so, which takes precedence—high-priority tasks or those due today?

Does CHT have a built-in functionality to prioritize tasks based on specific data points, ensuring that high-priority tasks (e.g., TB-related referrals) appear at the top of the task list, followed by other high-priority tasks and tasks due today?

Hi @iesmail

I believe that task priority doesn’t affect sorting, and tasks are only simply sorted by their due date: cht-core/webapp/src/ts/reducers/tasks.ts at 80760a6d2155e5f77cb5278651b0fe63de7ed0fc · medic/cht-core · GitHub . As far as I can tell, setting a task as high priority just adds a label to the task in the list.
