Thanks for the suggestions guys, the reason I wanted to get rid of 
priority sort is because we had set OTRS to display closed tickets and so 
some closed tickets that had had a high priority were displaying before 
more recently created open tickets so it was confusing!

We decided to get rid of the closed tickets display anyway so its not so 
much of an issue now.

Thanks!

Emily

It kind of defeats the purpose of using priorities, when you do not 
prioritize. Please think about using the default functionality as 
designed. You can turn off the priority fields throughout OTRS and/or 
use and ACL to blend out all other priorities other then the default 
level, so that these fields cannot be used, as an alternative. The 
only screens not possible to turn the functionality off is the phone 
and email ticket. So an ACL will take care of that.

You are very right. This is hard coded in AgentTicketQueue.pm

         else {

157 
             %Sort = (

158 
                 SortBy  => [ 'Priority', $SortBy ],

159 
                 OrderBy => [ 'Down',     $OrderBy ],

160 
             );

161                      }

This is also a good alternative. Thanks for the tip and supporting 
your fellow members!

@Emily, you can turn off the sorting, with a little Perl knowledge. 
But, as you have heard some good alternatives, I recommend not doing 
it. Just a tip!
