Time estimate field is missing.

Hello,

Seems our version of jira and greenhopper is missing the estimate field that, I thought, was part of jira out of the box. Or with greenhopper.

I am currently running jira 4.3.4 and greenhopper 5.6.5

I have looked in the default field configuration and I do no see estimate or work estimate in the list.

Any ideas? We really need this feature for upcoming sprint.

Thanks!

Did you turn on time tracking according to http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Configuring+Time+Tracking ? Please also make sure that the system field time tracking is enabled in your field configuration. more details at http://forums.atlassian.com/thread.jspa?threadID=53084

A detailled instruction how to add the time tracking fields to a screen can be found here: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Defining+a+Screen#DefiningaScreen-AddingTimeTrackingcapabilitiestoascreen

This is a non-answer. I follow the three links on this page and I get led down a rabbit hole with no useful instructions on how to add estimates of time per task before work begins. This is a critical field. I can see that I can log work against an issue and it will reduce time from the estimate - but where is the estimate?

The field is Original Time Estimate on the JIRA tickets. In the Agile UI, it is re-named Estimate and it will appear at the top of the issue details. You should be able to click and edit that field in-line.

Just if it helps Estimate can not be changed (and will not be visible during Edit) if the item is in the active sprint. You have to yank it out of current sprint, 'Estimate' and then add it back to sprint.

It seems once you have the custom field Story Points added to the board you also have to ensure that the Issues > Fields > Custom Fields > Story Points > Configure > Default Configuration Scheme for Story Points > Edit Configuration > Choose applicable issue types has the issues types you want to do estimation on selected. I only had Storys and had to select my other issue types.
