Show the time spent in a status on Dashboard report

[asha_somashekar]

Hi,

There is a report for all the tasks completed in the last 1 week. I want to add a column which shows the time spend to complete the task (updated date - start date).  Is there a way I can calculate and show this field instead of having to use external application.

Regards

Asha

Native speaker. I can't quite phrase why, but it does sound correct to me. I'll give it a stab though...

I figure it is always present-tense. When you fix the issue (assuming bug for this example) you will have a new version, so the old version will always have that bug. The Fix Version is the version you created that resolved the issue.

It would be different if it was more generic around things like applications without versions involved -- e.g. Affected "JIRA" would be context-sensitive: was it affecting the application but has now been resolved, or is it still open & therefore Affects the application.

In my view when you talk about versions you always are talking present tense because the version is the subject.

Hope that view helps; gave me a good early morning stretch for my brain :)
