I know you can change the order statuses are displayed by admin > issues > statuses and sort order but I'd prefer to order the results in my jql with certain statuses at the top and a specific order.

Is it possible to order how statuses appear in a query using JQL.

For example:

if you have the following status available:

  1. review,
  2. backlog,
  3. in development,
  4. testing,
  5. and Done

But you don't want to order them alphabetically can you define a customer order?

For example a JQL query for the custom order might be ORDER BY Status ("review","backlog","in development").

In this case the statuses would show from top to bottom on the Y axis in this order ("review","backlog","in development")

In theory yes, you can make custom orders. I'm struggling to make it actually work though.

But your question indicates you already know about this feature. So I am not sure what you really want.
