How to change remaining estimate for subtasks

Question

Hello,

I have an issue with the remaining estimate tab. Basically I can not change the remaining estimate from the plan view for user stories with subtasks.

When i click edit the remaining tab doesn't appear. Only when creating issues this tab is available.

Although when looking at a story and its subtask, next to the status you see the remaining estimate but that cannot be changed. Just the original estimation can be changed.

How can I change remaining estimates?

Thank you,

Silviu.

Hello,

I don't see any screen besides the default screen scheme. And the "remaining" field is not available in the select field tab from the configure screen view.

Thank you,

Silviu,

Could you check your screen scheme for your sub tasks. It could be that the fields you need are only present on the create and view screen and not on the edit screen.

take a look here for more information:
