• Key Concepts: 
  Priority is a feature in SAP LO-ECH Engineering Change Management that allows users to assign a numerical value to a change request. This numerical value is used to determine the order in which the change requests are processed. The higher the priority, the sooner the change request will be processed. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Priority can be assigned to a change request when it is created. The user can select from a range of numerical values, from 1 (lowest priority) to 10 (highest priority). The user can also adjust the priority of an existing change request at any time. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When assigning priority to a change request, consider the urgency of the request and how quickly it needs to be processed. If the change request is urgent, assign it a higher priority. If it is not urgent, assign it a lower priority.
