Could it be that the Priority field was updated by Jira release to include additional values?

[Sari Kachorovsky]

I've noticed that the Priority field included additional values that as far as I recall were not included, We had only P1-P4 and now I see also Highest, High, Medium, Low. Just want to make sure it was done by Jira upgrade and not someone from my company. I want to delete them.

Hi Sari,

No, an upgrade, or even app install, will not add priorities to your system.  I'm afraid one of your co-admins added the new priorities.  You will need to ask the rest of your admin team who did it and why.

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- Thank you, couldn't find the person and no evidence it was changed, I just deleted them. 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Good move :-)  They didn't give you any other choice!

Hello @Sari Kachorovsky 

This seems like a custom changes that was made by someone else. To check this, you should check your audit log (Settings -> System -> Audit Log)

@Nikola Perisic thank you for your reply, I did check before I asked the audit log and I couldn't find anything related (search for the word priority and nothing was found). But I understand from you that there was no change/upgrade from Jira side that added this to all clients.

Hello, @Sari Kachorovsky ,as @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-  have mentioned, it seems that one of your colleagues have added these priorities, so it is the best to talk with them.
