GreenHopper allows you to set up rankings for your issues to help you organise tasks in your product/sprint backlog more effectively. Rankings allow you to prioritise issues at a more granular level than issue priorities in JIRA, as rankings can help you to determine whether a single issue is more important/urgent than another single issue. For example, you may have two separate issues that both have a priority of 'Major'. Using GreenHopper, you can assign one of the issues a higher ranking than the other.
Before you can rank issues in your project, you need to set up a ranking field for it. This is a custom field that is added to every issue in your project. Whenever you add or edit an issue in your project, you will be able to select a unique ranking value for it in the 'Rank' field.
For information on how to set up a ranking field for your project, please see Configuring your General Project Settings.
A ranking field must be specified for each project that you wish to rank issues in. You can re-use an existing ranking field, if you wish.

Important Information
Please note the following information before ranking your issues:
You can drag and drop one or multiple cards in GreenHopper with your mouse. Just hold down the 'CTRL' on your keyboard (if selecting multiple issues), click to select the desired cards/rows, then drag to the desired destination.
Screenshot:Dragging and dropping a card
If you have a large number of issues over multiple pages, you can move an issue(s) between pages by dragging the card/row up to the pagination controls (e.g. '1', '2', '3', '>>', etc) and then onto the page in the desired location.
Once you have dropped a card/row in a new location, the other cards/rows are immediately reorganised.
If you drag and drop an issue with sub-tasks, all of the sub-tasks will also be moved together with the parent issue. You cannot drag and drop a parent issue onto a subtask nor a subtask onto a different parent issue.
