How can I sum up times to parent tasks?

Nathael Dreymann

Hi,

I create several User Stories and add several sub-tasks to each User Story.

For each sub-task I have Original estimate field and Time tracking field.

I created automation to Sum up these times in my User Story (see screenshot attached).

When I change a Time tracking on the sub-task, the Time tracking is updated on the User Story, but I receive a failed email (I don't know why).

However I didn't succeed in created an automation to sum up Original estimate.

Can you please help

Thanks a lot

You don't need to do this. The Stories already display the accumulated time estimates from their sub-tasks (check the time tracking panel, there's an option to include/exclude the accumulated numbers)

When reporting on them, use the Σ fields (Σoriginal estimate, for example, shows you the accumulated estimates for the current issue and all its sub-tasks)

Hi Nic,

Thank you for your answer.

I see that the Time tracking is automatic for all the sub-tasks attached to my user story. It works well.

But I don't know how to see, on the user story, the sum of all sub-tasks Original estimate. It remains 0 (see screenshot attached).

Do you know why?

Thanks again for your help

The accumulated times are all shown in the "time tracking" section - the original estimate on the issue is zero, but the estimates on the subtasks add up to 4 days. (1 logged and 3 remaining)
