The title says it all. Greenhopper manual suggests to go through 'Administration' > 'Global Settings' > 'Timetracking', but there does not seem to be a corresponding menu option in Jira OnDemand.

Hi Pascal,

Answering your question, it is currently not possible to set this. This has been requested here https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-6128 which originated from this request - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/GHS-5117

In my case I already have 5 days/week, but I still see weekends in my charts

Yes, that's what we see too, so I'm wondering if it actually skips weekends in the cancellations. Still going to have to test that.

I ran a test and found that unfortunately the weekends are not skipped and burndown is expected in them, even thought the "Time Tracking Days Per Week" is set to 5 in our Jira OnDemand instance:

JIRA Admin > System > Time Tracking

Thanks for the quick answer, Jobin, but I have no "System" option under "Jira Admin"...

What I do see under "System Info", however, is that "Time Tracking Days Per Week" is set to 5. Would you know if that implies that Greenhopper skips weekends in the burndown charts?
