It is extremely important for our company that employees log time.
But they periodically forget to do it. Is it possible to make a setting
(plugin) so that employees have access to the main functionality blocked
until they log time?

You can achieve this very easily,

  1. Disable remember my login - https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver072/prevent-automatic-login-828787673.html
  2. Set default session timeout for jira - https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-change-the-default-session-timeout-604209887.html
  3. Now users have to login into Jira every morning before they can see any issue etc.
  4. You can find ways to use login information from here https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/monitor-a-user-s-activity-938847027.html

Jira doesn't store full login history in DB, but you can write simple sql query to fetch that information and store that somewhere else. You can also find login information in security logs of jira.

Hi @Maxim Kovalev ,

I have different opinions on this case.

I think it's important to make it easier for users to enter the workload through automation or other simple ways, rather than making functional restrictions before entering the worklog.

Looking forward to other community partners give good solution.

I would suggest using post function in the workflow to require updating the field or requiring the field to not be empty when transitioning to Done or other status. Of course there is noting you can do to enforce accuracy.

Hello

You cannot implement such a configuration without complex customization using scripts. However, you can impose a restriction on the movement of tasks, make time logging mandatory when the status changes. That is, your users will not be able to finish work on the task without filling in the time.
Also, look at the capabilities of the TEMPO plugin.
