Hi @Alejandra Martin
You can use Log work action to log vacation time.
When your user fills in the start date and the end date, you can run the rule with Log work action, which takes these dates and add to log

Hello @Alejandra Martin

Yes, that would be possible.

You could create a rule that uses the Scheduled trigger with a schedule to run weekly and specify the days of the week on which it should run.

If you don't want to log work on certain days of the week, make sure those days are not selected.

In that trigger you could include a JQL to select the issues that indicate vacation is being taken on that day; i.e.

type=Vacation and "Start Date" >= startofday() and "End Date" <= endofday()

Follow that with a Log Work action.
