[agile] How do you get Original and Remaining Estimate into the Issue Detail View for easy editing?

Question

How do we get the Original and Remaining Estimate fields show up in the Issue Detail View on our agile board for easy editing? Adding "Initial Estimate" to the General Fields doesn't seem to do anything, and the Original Estimate and Remaining Estimate fields don't seem to be available...

Richard Cross · Answer

This should be expected, as Scrum is based on delivering work to particular time-based milestones (i.e. scrums) and Kanban is not.

It would make little sense for a Kanban board to display time tracking information, as the purpose of a Kanban board is to show the flow of work (e.g. highlighting bottlenecks).

Configure >> Estimation is for a scrum board only.

Hello,

As I said in previous similar question https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/203202 :

It seems to be unfortunately still impossible in kanban, you can vote this pending ticket https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-6175 asking for those fields in kanban among other things.
