Is there a way to log multiple entries within a single work item while using JWM ?

[Mussey_ Scott]

I would like to create a custom field in JWM so that users within my project can log multiple numeric entries into that field.  I would then like to create basic reporting to show how many entries were logged for that custom field within in a given timeframe along with the user who logged the entry.  Is that possible in JWM?

Hello @Mussey_ Scott 

Could you provide more background on this scenario to give us more context?

What do the numbers represent?

My first thought, without more information, is that there the only natively available custom field type that allows users to dynamically create lists of values is a Labels type field.

However, there is no native reporting available that will tell you how many label values were added to issues within a time frame, not report who they were entered by. The History information in each work item will tell you who made changes and what changes were made and when the changes where made, but there is not a native function to generate reports from that history.

Perhaps if your provide a more detailed explanation of your business case we may be able to suggest some methods for achieving it.
