Is it possible to track users' logged time in our projects

SAzaruddin.mp

Is it possible to track users' logged time in our projects using the "Time tracking" field? The native time tracking tool doesn't offer advanced options to categorize these efforts separately, such as Development hours and Bug fixing efforts.

And we need a restriction to field which is original estimate once the original estimate is created restrict the users to modify the Original estimate

Hi @SAzaruddin.mp ,

For advanced time logging options, you will need to look for an AddOn in the marketplace.

Ex. in "Tempo Timesheets", you are able to create "Work Categories" like Development, Bugfixing, etc ....

Blocking a field from editing once entered is not as easy. You could create some kind of workaround where the field is only editable in a certain workflow transition, by certain people. Like explained here. But a possible solution depends on your requirements. Ex. when is the "Original Estimate" filled in ? By who is it filled in ? etc ....

Best regards,

Kris

Hi @SAzaruddin.mp

You might consider using time-tracking apps that in most cases have a customizable report of tracked time on issues.

I can recommend our Clockwork Automated Time Tracking & Timesheets Pro app, which allows you to track time for individual users across the projects, and this data using timesheets and create reports that can be configured in various ways using break-down and filtering options.

With Clockwork, you can use the Worklog attributes feature to define the type of task done for a Worklog. You can set fixed values, making users pick from these, or allow users to add values for each Worklog created.

All this details can be reviewed as an Timesheet report, so you can easily filter type of work done. atributes_timesheet (1).png

Let me now if that's what you are looking for. If needed we can also join together on a demo of our app. You can schedule it here.

Is there any way to check JQL if the original estimate value is changed from created value

Hey @SAzaruddin.mp -

My company offers AI data modeling services and one of our core models is an automated worklog estimate we call "Dev Days" - it can be retro actively applied to any of your projects and broken down by any other fields from Git or Jira, including custom.

Here is an example report showing dev days by ticket issue type as you mentioned:

JQL had a "CHANGED" operator but it works on Assignee, Fix Version, Priority, Reporter, Resolution, and Status fields only.

Hi @SAzaruddin.mp ,

If you are looking for an app which will allow you to track users' logged time within your Jira instance, then on behalf of SolDevelo I can recommend our app called "Worklogs - Time Tracking and Time Reports".

Developed in-house by our development team, Worklogs allows you to easily and effortlessly overview the logged work of your co-workers within a chosen date range:

Worklogs allows you to precisely filter the company’s logged work with a wide range of filters such as users, issues, projects, issue types, labels and more. Additionally, you can display the data for a specific date range with a breakdown by day, week, month or year.

It's also worth adding that the app uses Jira's native time tracking and time logs, meaning that any time tracked previously with this method before its installation will be present in Worklogs.

I hope you'll like it! If you are interested, I will be happy to answer any questions that you might have. So, feel free to book a free demo session here, or you can contact us through the portal here.

Have a great day!

Best regards,
Tomasz

Hi @SAzaruddin.mp ,

If you want to record worklogs with additional details and categorize them accordingly, I recommend using third-party applications from the Atlassian Marketplace. One such tool is WorklogPRO. With its attributes feature, you can add custom attributes tailored to your needs, which can be selected when recording worklogs. For instance, by adding a single-select attribute with options like "Development" and "Bug fixing," you can assign a category to each worklog entry by making this attribute mandatory in the WorklogPRO dialog. This allows you to group and analyze worklogs based on their category in the timesheet, helping you gain better insights into the time spent on each work type.

There is no straightforward way to prevent changes to the original estimate. For certain users, you may want to remove the "Edit Issues" permission to restrict all issue editing capabilities, or consider using a different add-on designed for this purpose.

Disclaimer: I work for the vendor who developed this application.
