Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

28800 is one day - it's the number of seconds in 8 hours!

You'll need to amend your automation or script that is setting that - it's reading a number of seconds from somewhere and not converting it to days before adding it to the estimate.

Hi, 

thanks for the fast reply.

As you can see, it presents the value in days, so I understand what it is doing, but it's weird

The numbers make sense when you know the internals of Jira, but you need to look at the automation or script that is calculating the number that is being posted into the field.

If it is a human filling the field, then you need to ask them why they are entering the numbers like that (Under Admin -> Timetracking, you can set the default to minutes, hours, days, or weeks, so a number without any units won't be taken as seconds)
