Creating a new view
By default, only three views exist on the Issues list.? This
is All Issues which shows all issues; My Issues which filters the issues to
only those assigned to you; and Active issues where status = ?Active.?? Using
the steps below a new view will be added that will group active issues by their
priority.
1. Goto
the Modify settings and column page for the Issues list
2. Click
Create a new view under ?Views?
3. Click
Standard View
4. Enter
?By Priority? for the View Name
5. Under
?Sort? choose Created
?
This will put the newest items to the top of the list, this can
be changed.
6. Under
?Filter? select And option and select Status from the drop down
list and enter ?Active? in the text box

Enabling e-mail notification to Issue owner
1. Goto
the Modify settings and column page for the Issues list
2. Click

3. Click
Yes under ?Email Notification?
?
This will tell SharePoint to send an e-mail to the person the
issue is assigned to whenever the issue changes.? This is also a unique feature
of an Issues list web part.
