Hi @Ste Wright

Your answer helped a lot, even more so as I'm learning to work with Jira's configurations as the tool's Administrator. What I want is to have a time dimension of the total time teams invest to complete a task, story or epic.

Your answer made perfect sense, thanks again!

Hi @Renata Ribeiro

You can do this via Automation - for example, you might:

* Create a custom Date Picker field - to capture the date development starts (eg. Development Start Date)

Then the rule might look like:

* Trigger: Issue Transitioned* To Status = In Progress - assuming this was the first Status for development starting

* Condition: Issue Fields Condition* Field = Issue Type
* Condition = equals
* Value = Story

* Action: Edit Issue* Field = Development Start Date* Value = {{now}}

---

A few notes...

* The Condition might not be relevant if the rule does not differ between Issue Types
* You could have additional Date Picker fields, and additional rules to populate them
* If preferred, you could use a Date/Time Picker custom field, to capture both the date and the exact time also
* The {{now}} value populates the field with the current date and/or date/time. To see what else is possible when setting date fields, view this help page

Let us know your thoughts!

If you'd like more detail to help build a specific version of this rule, provide us the exact parameters you need to include so we can assist further :)

Just to note, I did try to translate this back to Portuguese (using Google Translate), but it didn't make as much sense this time - I hope that is alright!
