Remaining hours changing to N/A while logging time.

Question

Hi,

I don't put estimates on my tickets, as I usually have no clue how long they will take. When I log work (by typing 'w'), I put my time into the Worked field, and because there is no estimate, this auto-fills "Remaining estimate" with "N/A". If I try to submit that, it tells me "Remaining estimate is invalid." I have to change "Remaining estimate" to 0 to submit the work log. I don't think a field should ever be auto-filled with an invalid value. Wouldn't a default of 0 be more appropriate?

Thanks,

Tempo Administration, Global Configuration, it's the 3rd option down from Logging Work.  If you don't see the option you may not be in tempo admonition permission

@M.D. Klapwijk I want to do just that but cannot locate where you can switch fields to optional anywhere in Administration for Tempo. Can you provide some information on how to navigate to where the configuration can be changed?

If you are using Tempo; try switching "Remaining estimate is optional" in the Tempo configuration. This will set the remaining estimate to 0h instead of n/a.
