Mandatory Work Log/Time Tracking in Nextgen

[Sam]

Hi All,

Is there a way we can make 'time spent' or other time tracking mandatory before an issue is set to closed?

I'm aware this is possible in Classic but need to achieve in Nextgen.

I'm able to make other fields mandatory such as Assignee etc but cannot see a way to do this is with the Work Log fields.

Thanks

Hello Sam,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

On team-managed (next-gen) projects, currently, there are few options for required fields on transitions. The workflow doesn’t have the validators or post functions the same as company-managed (classic) ones. Also, there are no screens for transitions, so it’s not possible to set the Time tracking as required.

Based on your question, I created a feature request suggesting this option:

• Add Time Tracking on "Remind people to update empty fields" rule
