How to make original and Time tracking fields un-editable
Hi @Vishnu Vardhan Chenna , thanks for your question.
You could have a configuration where the Time tracking fields are on the create and view screens and not the edit screen, but then I don't know how they would get updated.
What did you have in mind?
Hi @Vishnu Vardhan Chenna
Just remove your users from the "Work on Issues" permissions. This will result in them not being able to log any work on the time spent field.
@Valerie Knapp unfortunately you can't simply remove the time tracking fields using the issue screen operation (https://confluence.atlassian.com/servicedeskcloud/configuring-time-tracking-1097176646.html). You can hide them though via the field configuration if you are on a CMP:
Time tracking is always enabled in Jira Cloud projects. You can control whether the feature is used in your projects by: Showing or hiding the Time tracking field in your company-managed projects' field configurations. Learn more about field configurations. Adding or removing the Time tracking field on your team-managed projects' issue types. Learn how to customize an issue’s fields in team-managed projects.

As for the original estimate vote and watch these issues:
You can do one thing in this case, remove "Original Estimate" and "Time Tracking" field from Layout only and keep field available on Create/Edit/View screen. This will hide these fields from view screen and user won't be able to edit, but original value still remain in the field. You can search using JQL.
