Cannot start a sprint without warning for our Story Issues (ex. IT-#### do not have a value for the 'Estimate' field. Values entered after the start of the sprint will be treated as scope change.)

Question

The Issues showing are all Stories, that have sub-tasks with Estimates.   We never put Estimates in a Story so not sure why we are seeing this warning message.

Thank you to the information Celia!!

Some of our users too are facing a similar issue. I will ask them to try this workaround until we upgrade the JIRA Agile and provide feedback.

I was able to start the Sprint after going back to each story and entering a "zero" (0) into each Estimate field instead of leaving it blank.  I have always been able to leave that field empty before, but this time, for some reason, it did not like that field being blank.  Any ideas?
