How to add a field Effort Variance (%) ?

[Nirmalya Mohapatra]

Hi,

Request your support how to create a field for Effort Variance (%) for Task and Sub-task. This is required for one of the project.

Value of the new field is based on the following calculation.

Effort variance = (Time spent - Original Estimate)/ Original estimate*100. Kindly revert for any clarifications.

Thanks and regards

Nirmalya

The best way is to get the SAP system to trigger an action to create an issue in Jira via the REST interface.

@Matthew, thank you for the answer. Interfacing with REST is nice, but requires development efforts. I will prefer passing such a task to an Atlassian expert and subcontracting this one.
