Field Oryginal Estimate

Łukasz Lipski

Hi,

I'm using field oryginal estimate in my project. My boss report time spent using Time Reports in JIRA. He use field estimate to control budget. Why field estimate is rising after registration more hours than oryginal estimate?

Correct registration - I logged 2h:

Incorrect registration on the same task - I logged 16h more:

For what the estimate was change?

Hi Łukasz,

Estimate is total time issue is expected to take, so when you have logged 2h you have left remaining estimate unchanged, thus Estimate increased by 2h, so that Estimate = Remaining Estimate + Timespent.

Thank you.
