How the Time tracking can be freezed?

Question

Hi,

I would like to freeze the time logging in all issues for previous months and make it available only for the current month, May I know how can I achieve this in JIRA?

Hope this feature is not directly available in JIRA. BUt any plugins have this feature?

Thanks for your valuable feedback. I Understand the option you are saying using the status properties. But I do not wish to change the status.

So I need to search for the plug-ins only

Hi @Selvalakshmi Praveen Kumar

There are a little complex solutions to do this via Jira itself, mainly working with:

- Status with properties configured to remove permissions to worklog (this is trick and needs carefull and good knowldge in doing so, because of Step Properties).

- Automation to move to this new status when the time of resolution have passed the time you want to

If you dont have time to learn all of that (advanced workflows, transition and step properties, and automation), I suggest you to use an add-on. 
Most of them have a way to block worklog in their UI. Just search in Marketplace and talk to the vendors to get rid of doubts.

I hope it helps
