      At the moment, the Ranking To and From External Systems from the backlog is only available for all PIs of a program as per the Jira Align documentation>Prioritize/rank work items in the backlog

      Goal
      I would like to use the ranking in Jira Align (coming from a current Portfolio Ranking) to rank the Program Backlog for a certain PI - and then push it to Jira SW so that I can use the same ranking there as well.

      Problem
      I can rank the entire Program Backlog by the Portfolio Epic Ranking. But then I usually go to the PI restricted view of the Program Backlog (Feature/Jira Epics) and do the actual ranking of the Jira Epics of the PI Backlog there. But then I have no chance to sync it to Jira SW since this PI view Ranking does not have ANY effect on the (absolute) ranking of the Program Backlog and thus it is impossible to push to Jira SW. I would need to manually rank in the very large program backlog of all Jira Epics and then push to Jira SW.

      Conclusion:
      This makes consistent usage of ranking in Jira Align with Jira SW rather impossible.

            For me the concept of a global rank does not make sense. High level priority/rank is defined by the PI, detailed rank is the rank within a PI. For me features in an earlier PI have by definition a higher priority/rank than features in a later PI. I can not think of situations where this is not the case.
