# Issue weight **(PREMIUM)**
|
|
|
|
> Moved to GitLab Premium in 13.9.
|
|
|
|
When you have a lot of issues, it can be hard to get an overview.
|
|
With weighted issues, you can get a better idea of how much time,
|
|
value, or complexity a given issue has or costs.
|
|
|
|
You can set the weight of an issue during its creation, by changing the
|
|
value in the dropdown menu. You can set it to a non-negative integer
|
|
value from 0, 1, 2, and so on. (The database stores a 4-byte value, so the
|
|
upper bound is essentially limitless.)
|
|
You can remove weight from an issue
|
|
as well.
|
|
|
|
This value appears on the right sidebar of an individual issue, as well as
|
|
in the issues page next to a weight icon (**{weight}**).
|
|
|
|
As an added bonus, you can see the total sum of all issues on the milestone page.
