You can make a fake impact field that maps its value the real one.  That 
way it cosmetically looks like what the client wants, but all workflow 
stays intact.  Just make sure any update done to the fake field is 
replicated to the real one.  Still some work involved, but doable if the 
client really wants this.

Re: Impact of changing the Urgency, Impact and Priority Fields

If you look at the SYS:Menu Items form (for those of you with ITSM 7), you 
can get an idea of what a data-driven solution for those fields would be 
like.

Viswanathan - I would recommend against this.  I have a client that
wants the same thing, but it touches far to much workflow.  The reward 
vs. effort in my opinion is not worth it.
