Get time spent in linked tickets by group of user

[Chirag]

Hello everyone,

I am stuck with a scenario. Please look into it below :

Scenario :

• Task A : TA-01 is linked to 2 other tasks
  • Task B : TA-02
  • Task C : TA-03

There are 2 users belonging to 2 different groups:

• User_A 
  • Group : Developer
• User_B
  • Group : QA

Time log history against each task:

• Task A
  
  • 6May2023 : User_B : 4H
• Task B
  • 1May2023 : User_A : 2H
  • 2May2023 : User_A : 1H
• Task C
  • 4May2023 : User_A : 5H
  • 5May2023 : User_B : 7H

As per the scenario above I am trying to figure out an automation on jira that when run on Task A on 7May2023 would would update 2 fields with following data :

1. Total time logged by group 'QA' users in all linked tickets. Output should be 7H. This includes :
   1. Task C
      • 4May2023 : User_A : 5H
2. Total time logged by group 'Developer' users in all linked tickets. Output should be 8H. This includes:
   1. Task B
      • 1May2023 : User_A : 2H
      • 2May2023 : User_A : 1H
   2. Task C
      • 4May2023 : User_A : 5H

Looking forward to any help.

Thank you,

Chirag.

Hi... 

Yes; if you rename the issue type, since the label is only a pointer to a numeric value representing the issue type, every project in the instance that uses that issue type will have the new label.

If you want new issue types for JUST Project-1, you'd need to create the new issue types and add them to the project by associating them with the workflow that has the old issue types.

You cannot edit issue types from the project directly as they are global values in the system.

Thanks for your reply. I do have a doubt that by renaming the issue type will affect other project? Because when i select specific project it won't allow me to bring Edit option to change the Labels.

Path-1:

---------

Settings --> Issues --> Issue Types --> Edit 

For Project -1:

Settings --> Projects --> Project -1 --> Issue Types --> select "New Feature" --> it is taking me to Workflow/fields.  

Only using Path-1, i can edit labels? but i am sure it affects Project-2.

How to fix this.

Thanks for your help

There may be a new way to do this, but the only way I've ever tried to modify issue types is through the JIRA admin menu.

Yes, the name is just the label.
