You can move artifacts in a planning folder up and down to reflect the order in which they should be addressed.
A set of user stories often includes dependency relationships that require that one user story be addressed before another. For example, suppose a backend database modification must be in place before a user interface component can be created to access it. Both user stories may have the same degree of priority, but one has to be done before the other.
One way to manage this is by ranking the user stories in your planning view so that they reflect the sequence you want. When you do this, team members have a better chance of selecting work efficiently and reducing the need for rework.
Note: Rank is not the same as priority. Two artifacts may have
the same priority but different ranks, or sequence positions.

- Drag and drop the artifact cards into whatever relative positions you want.
