Mandatory log time in next-gen projects

[Alicja Cierniak]

Hi,
Is it possible to force time registration in Next-Gen projects? So that Agent couldn't close the issue if he didn't log any time?

Regards,

A

Hi @Alicja Cierniak 

Natively next-gen doesn't have such feature as required fields are not yet available. Maybe use an Add-on such as Tempo timesheet for time logging.

Forcing people to log time can lead to the creation of worklogs but do not necessary result in accurate results.

Getting accurate timesheets is a challenge we at TechTime know well. After many attempts at gamification, persuasion by meme, and constant nagging we developed an app which is now available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

Our product EasyTime for Jira is available on Server, Data Center, and Cloud – it allows your team to track time instantly, automatically and accurately. EasyTime for Jira records time based on the events (view the issue, leave a comment, close/resolve the issue) that users naturally generate while working, they don't have to do anything extra.

Please do take a look. Reach out to our 24x7 support via Service Desk or the chat widget on our website if required.

Thank you @Kat Warner _TechTime_ for your answer. I agree that forcing log time it's not always good idea, but it this particular situation and type of issue I need just simple log time :)
