What can be prioritized

Meet the new BigPicture navigation

A faster, smarter, and more intuitive way to work is here. We’ve redesigned BigPicture navigation to give you a smoother experience and better access to what matters most.

→ Discover what’s new, explore key improvements, and review feature name updates on the New navigation page.

→ The rollout will happen gradually, and the previous navigation will be retired in September 2026.

What can be prioritized

What can be prioritized (old navigation)

In the Priorities module, you can prioritize these key elements:

  • Tasks (Jira work items)

  • BigPicture boxes

  • Goals (OKRs)

You can easily switch between the tabs and manage priorities among tasks, boxes, and goals in one place.

The template you choose will be consistently applied across all tasks, boxes, and goals.
