How to sum up sub tasks to total story using original hours estimates

Hizkeel Khan

Hello,

I want to sum the sub-tasks to total story. let me explain this:

I have created one story by the name of Story 1 and under that story 1, I have created two sub-tasks like 1.1 and 1.2. The Estimation format I'm using is Original Hours Estimates. What I want is that if my subtask 1.2 is estimated at 2h and 1.2 at 3h so the story should be automatically added to 5h and whenever I add any subtask with estimates, the parent should be get automatically updated.

I have looked for some solution and it works if the estimation format is Story Point but I'm using original hours estimates format.

Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Now, whenever I create a new sub-task and assign original hours, the parent issues get updated automatically.

Is it giving correct sum up at parent issue level?

Hello @Erik Avetisyan

Please start a brand new Question to get additional help. In that question:

1. Provide screen images that show your complete Automation Rule and the details of each step in the rule.

2. The details of the estimate amounts in the subtasks.

3. The output of the Audit Log for the rule execution.
