Queue Prioritization
What is the best way to handle this sort of manufacturing scenario in Quick Base?

- We have jobs that come in for a manufacturing run. Each job can be anywhere from an hour to multiple days
- We can have anywhere from 2 days worth of jobs queued at any time up to a couple of months of backlog.
- We need a way to prioritize jobs easily based on incoming new jobs and a number of other real-time factors that happen throughout the day. This is done manually by the manager.
- Currently, the jobs are stored in an Excel file and the user cuts and pastes rows to re-order them.
- The user may filter the jobs first and then re-order the currently-displayed jobs.
- What is a simple way to allow the user to re-order the jobs in Quick Base?
- If we were to use a number field to order the jobs, anytime a job is moved, all subsequent jobs (in the current view) would need to be renumbered somehow.
- Ideally, this could be done through a drag and drop method or at least through gridview or any other simple method
