Hi everyone,
Here's my current scenario:
I'm using Original Estimate on Backlog View as shown below. This helps during sprint planning.
Added Original Estimate on Backlog view: 24hrs
Added Sub-task 1 with Original Estimate: 12hrs
Added Sub-task 2 with Original Estimate: 12hrs
Total hours on Parent ticket: 48hrs
By default, Jira sums the Original Estimate on the parent and on the sub-tasks. Unchecking the "Include sub-tasks" shows only the parent Original Estimate and not the logged hours on sub-tasks.
If I add sub-tasks with Original Estimates, It doesn't sum up on the backlog view. In my example above, having 24hrs on 2 sub-tasks will just show 0hrs on the backlog view.
What can I do to not double the estimates? Not specify the Original Estimates on sub-task level and just use it to log work hours? Is there a way to configure this (I am not Jira Admin in our company)?
I'd appreciate all answers. Thank you!
