Can different users record different % of hours logged?

PhilSpo

Im looking for a solution for different users to be able to log different % of hours worked.

For example.

Developer A is experienced and for every hour logged they do 1 hours worth of work.

Developer B is junior and for every hour logged they do 0.75 hours worth of work.

Developer C is new and for every hour logged they do 0.5 hours worth of work.

Is there any way in Jira we can set this up (or addons) so that when we do our end of month reporting we have the 'hours logged' report per developer and the 'hours worth of work logged' per developer?

Cheers

Phil

Hi @PhilSpo

Would you please explain the problem you are trying to solve?

It seems you want to track development time keeping and a separate measure of people's "value" or "worth". What are you gonna do with that second measure?

Best regards,

Bill

No, because there is no adjustment. If someone needs to log an hour, while the next one needs to log a half, then they should log 1h and 30m respectively.

Hello @Bill Sheboy

Yes of course.

So for our reporting we use WIP (work in progress). Once an issue is resolved we can add up the hours logged on that task and add it to the WIP figure and this lets us know how much chargeable work we have so far delivered for the month.

We are finding that although the hours are being logged, the amount of work being done doesn't match up.

For example we take 2000 hours to deploy a product to a new customer. We are finding that if Developer A (as the example above) does all the work it is complete in 2000 Hrs.

If Developer C does the work although they have logged 2000 hours we are only actually half way through the project.

So we somehow need to set a % of 1 hour against developers and then that figure gets added up for each hour they spend in timesheets so we can see how much work is actually done.
