Unable to view the time spent field on my board

[Neeharika U]

Hello Community,

I have the time spent field added to my field list but it doesn't show up on the issues. I tried all different options of adding it, removing and re-adding it but unable to still find it. 

Any help here?

You have to add "Time tracking" to your issue layout / screen. And it links to to Time Spent in the issue navigator.

Hi @Neeharika U and welcome to the Community!

Where are you expecting the field to show up? Have you tried the "Find you field" function?

If you added it to the right screens, it could be a Field Config or Context issue maybe.

Hi @Neeharika U , welcome to the Atlassian Community and thanks for your question.

Normally, you need to add 'Time Tracking' to the screens of your project in order to be able to log work and then view the time spent.

Please can you share an anonymised version of the screens you are using so we can give you a hand?

Cheers

How do you add time tracking?

Hi @Theresa , welcome to the Atlassian Community and thanks for your question.

You can add the Time tracking fields adding them to a screen here in the Global settings, Issues, Screens section.
Hope this helps

Cheers

Also, there is a global Setting for time tracking and the permission "Log work" in the permission schemes.
