purpose of Weight field on Notification?

[Raffy1]

We have implemented several notifications against Incident table with different WEIGHT value with 10, 20, 30 by different implementors.

Does anyone let me know what the purpose of the weight field of the notification?

Is it precedence idea?

No notification with higher/lower weight wins when the notification condition is conflicted or so?

thank you for sharing your knowledge?

hello  @Raffy ,

Use the Weight field to prevent recipients from receiving multiple or conflicting notifications for the same target table record or event. Notifications with a Weight value of zero are always sent. If notifications have non-zero Weight values, only the notification with the highest Weight value is sent.

Hope this helps
