bug in Jira software..

[Deleted user]

Sorry i didn't get rgt place to show this jira software bug so i put it here . Jira dev team Please look into it

Not necessarily. When a user logs work they have the opportunity to set the remaining time. So a user could have logged 1.5h and set remaining time to 30m. Please check the Work log details under the Activity area.

remaining time is auto calculated not set by user

Sometimes it is.

Try clicking on "log work" and look at the two enterable fields you get - "time spent" and "time remaining".

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Not a bug.

One of your people has amended the time remaining instead of logging work.

no......

here total work time is 4h and logged  time is 1h 30m so remaining time must be 2h 30m not only 30m 

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No.  "total work time is 4h and logged  time is 1h 30m so remaining time must be 2h 30m" is a false statement.  It is true in the case where no-one has changed the remaining estimate.  But in this case, they have.

What I said was nothing about the calculation, I said that someone changed the remaining time.

I'll try to phrase this differently:

When you go to a time entry process, some of them offer the option to log work or adjust the remaining estimate.

One or more of your people have used that option to amend it.

• The original estimate is 4h
• The work logged is 1h 30m
• One of your people set the remaining estimate to a new number.  (I can't tell you what they set it to, because it depends on the point at which they set it.  If it was before any work was logged, then they set it to 2h.  If it was after, then they set it to 30m.  It could have been in between work logs too)
