Sum up logged time for a project

Martin_ukbd1r

Hello there,

 

I would like to automate a way to sum all logged timesheets of a project into a single field. Why? We use issues of a project as a portfolio, and managers wants to see there how much time was worked in total on a project.

I know how to create the automation, but I'm guessing, it would be a custom JSON parsing.

 

Your help would be appreciate!

Hello @Martin 

There is no project-level field for storing such information. 

You could create another issue just for storing the time logged against all the other issues in the project.

You could create an Automation rule triggered by Work Logged, and then have an action to log the same amount of time against your time tracking issue.

Or you could look at third party apps that provide time tracking reporting. One that I worked with that I thought was not too expensive and balanced simplicity with a good variety of grouping/roll-up options was Worklogs - Time Tracking and Reports.
