Time Tracking?

[Nathan Householder]

I am noticing that there doesn't seem to be any way to have a button to start time on an issue, but just a field that you have to enter time into.

Is there no button capability for this? Do my team members have to keep track of their own time and then manually enter it into the issue?

Hii @Nathan Householder 

It is good question. I use tempo plugin and when i want to start work on an issue click on start tracker and then on the right down of your page a box pop up and start your time like stopwatch in your mobile.

Hi Ashkan,

And then you have to copy and paste that time into the ticket?

[Ashkan Malekly]

@Nathan Householder 

No. Just when you want to pause click on pause and you finish your job click on stop and ask you to confirm and then you are okey it is copied in time spent.

Hi @Nathan Householder 

Tracking time on Jira can be annoying switching tabs, so we created a free add-on called Timkee to simplify the process for macOS. Easily your team can track all their tickets using the Mac statusbar without the need to track manually on a ticket.

When used in combination with Tempo, Timkee automatically syncs all time logs, streamlining the creation of reports. These reports can easily be exported to CSV or Excel, allowing for customized filtering as needed. If you want take a look on your page and it's free plug-in that can be downloaded on the App Store https://timkee.io/ ; https://apps.apple.com/us/app/timkee/id1670602751?ign-itscg=30200&ign-itsct=apps_box_link .

Cheers,

Fabian

Hello @Nathan Householder 

I understand that this is a rather old question, nevertheless I decided to advise you (or anyone else with the similar needs) to check Everhour + Jira integration. 

Everhour’s Jira time tracker will help you on several levels: from billing to time-off management, as well as everyday real-time time tracking.

You can start timer, add time, watch progress… all from the time tracking panel inside Jira.

I installed the ClockFree and it works really well.
