I'm working in a JIRA cloud instance and testing out Portfolio for JIRA. It says that the estimation fields are required for it to work. I do not seem to have the Original Estimate or Remaining Estimate fields in my JIRA instance. Is there a way to get those back? Or is there a way to map custom estimate fields to Portfolio?
Thanks!
Hello @Heather Stoddard
Please make sure you have time tracking enabled on the cloud instance

And also add the "Time tracking" field to the screens of the issueTypes -> projects.
See here
The Time Tracking was active. I granted permissions to application access: Jira software. I went back and tried to add the fields to my issue screens, but it's still not available as a choice.

Thank you! This did it! Now I just have to figure out how to make the User Story time tracking will have an effect on the Epic Remaining Time.

So is `Remaining Estimate` a field that can no longer be displayed on its own? We don't actually use Jira tickets to log time, so having a `Time Tracking` field on the ticket is extremely confusing.
