How do I track time for multiple developers within JIRA?

Zach Sai'd

Our company brought in an auditor for our team earlier this year and we had to pull the hours each developer worked on each feature or where the hours went for the year. We just switched to JIRA with this new requirement to track time, but I am unsure of how to reliably pull this information on the feature level, not as granular as the story or task level.

We use Sprints, but we also have Dev-Ops work that gets done within the Sprint that is not part of the Sprint, and meetings / support work are not part of the Sprint either. I need to be able to pull hours across these projects as well, for each developer.

Hi Zak,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

In order to extract time tracking data you would need an app, if you search the Marketplace you will get a list of apps for time tracking. We am using Tempo Timesheet and it allows you to setup internal issues that you can use for non-project time like meetings, time off etc, and pull reports per feature, team and project level if you want to.

Hi Zak,

You can use WorklogPRO to generate various timesheet reports. Try it and see whether it covers your requirements, e-mail to us if it is not and we can work on your requirements together.

We used to use Tempo, we switched off of it because it required an estimate for how much work is still required. That might be something we can switch off, but I didn't look into it myself.

With WorklogPRO, are devs still able to record time as normal - on the issue with JIRA's native timelog field - or do they have to use the custom field?

Deniz Oğuz - Starware

Yes, they can still use native “Log Work” dialog of Jira.

Unfortunately this solution does not work because it is for server users, we use a cloud service.

Hi Zak,

In order to have some additional functions in the Cloud version, you should use add-ons.

If you want to measure the time spent in each status, try 'Time in Status for Jira Cloud' by SaaSJet. This plugin allows determining how long your issues stayed in each status and how much time a particular user was assigned to each issue.

The app generates other reports: average time, status entrance date, time in status per date, status and transition count.

Also, you can view every report as charts (Pie, Bar and Area Charts). All data you can export.

You could explore other useful functions and download the add-on at the Atlassian Marketplace.

Hope, that is helpful for you.
