Deleting or reducing logged time

[Patrycja Helbin]

Hi,

I have a problem with the remaining estimate calculation done by JIRA. When task have 3 days original estimate, the time spent is already 2 days and I delete 1 day from time spent the remaining estimate is changing to original estimate + deleted time. In this case insted of 2 days in remaining estimate I have 4. Do you have any other notification about it?

Best regards,

Patrycja Helbin

@Patrycja Helbin - hi Patrycja!

Have you seen this help doc?

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/log-time-on-an-issue/

[when deleting a time log] You'll be asked whether you'd like to adjust the remaining time estimate. If you choose to adjust it, you can let Jira automatically adjust the time remaining by adding back the deleted time or set it to another time manually.

I think that's what's happening to you?

Let me know if you're still encountering this issue!
