Each Consignment can be given a priority level. The priority helps to highlight Consignments that need to be processed ahead of others.
Setting Consignment Priority
Priority is set from the Consignment header bar by selecting the icon and changing the setting. When a Consignment is first created it is assigned a Normal Priority by default which can be then updated at any point throughout the consignment lifecycle.
