Writeback Dropdown - Tasking Prioritization

I would like to have a dropdown column in a vizlib writeback table where the end user can select a priority ranking for milestones. If the selected ranking already exists, I want to push all other tasks down the list and assign a new priority ranking. For example, if "Milestone 3" is currently ranked 10 and "Milestone 2" is ranked 1, but I want "Milestone 3" to be ranked 1 , I would like to change its dropdown value to 1 and have all other milestones adjust accordingly after the writeback so now Milestone 2 would be ranked 2. I'm not sure how to script this functionality for the dropdowns and where to include it in the writeback script. Any assistance on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Managing dropdown options through the load script can become difficult, especially when the list of values is large or frequently changing. While it works, it may not always be the most scalable or maintainable approach.

An alternative is to manage these options at the UI/configuration level instead of relying completely on script-based definitions. Solutions like SenseOps Writeback provide more flexibility for configuring dropdown values, helping simplify maintenance and making future updates easier to manage.
