How to differentiate my worklogs based on a project?

The simple way to do it is to create multiple worklog sources for different projects and define a different color for each worklog source. Please refer to the page to find out more about worklog source configuration.

...

Please take a look below:

...

We miss the old feature "Spent Vs Planned" report. How do we recreate it in the new app version?

To generate a report "Spent Vs Planned", first, please make sure that your calendar contains the required sources: Worklogs and Planning. Please refer to the Event Sources Tab of your calendar to verify this. Second, in Reports mode, configure the fields for reporting as Day and Event Source.

...

Finally, generate a report. Your report might look similar to the one below:

...

We would like to generate a report for former users

For those who use cloud Jira this can be done the next way:

...

In case a user is removed from Jira, his or her worklog history is lost. In order to see the worklogs that belong to removed users you would have to create a worklog source with the configuration: Jira filter “All issues“ and user option “All“. As result, all worklogs will be shown for former users. Please see below:

...

In my report, I want to see the total work logged for the parent task and its sub-tasks

We’ve prepared a special field for that, aggregated Parent (“Σ Parent“). Please see below:

...

In my report, I want to see the total work logged for the epic task and its tasks

We’ve prepared a special field for that too, aggregated Epic (“Σ Epic“). Please see below:

...

In my report, I want to see the epic name in case there is an epic link for a task

Please use the field aggregated Epic Name (“Σ Epic Name“) as shown below:

...

The generated report is not being downloaded

One of the reasons why the generated report is not being downloaded is that multiple downloads are blocked. Please check your browser if this is the case.

...

Manage multiple downloads if needed.

...

The report is being generated in days and I prefer it to be generated in hours

You can change the time units for reports, by clicking next to Total, on the left panel:

...

I want to see the planning events created by others

In order to see the planning made by others, you may either

...

In such case, you may want to create Team planning source, in your calendar configuration. Then, grant the required permissions to other users, assuming your calendar is not public. As result, the users who are granted the visibility and event editing permissions shall be able to create and edit planning events.

...

I want to see Logged vs Planned for each day

In order to see logged time versus planned time in daily total hours, you would have to do next:

...

The sources to be compared don’t have to be the very first two sources in the list, on the left panel. They have to be the first two enabled. Please see another example below.

...

Why

...

the calendars look differently if the app is opened in a project context view comparing to the way it looks when the app is opened from Jira top menu?

The calendar availability and calendar content may differ, depending what Jira area you opened the app, project context view or Jira top menu. This is the expected behavior, and is explained by the way the calendar sources are configured. In more details below:

  • In case a calendar source is configured with the Project option “All projects“ the calendar, along with the events that are based on the source with the option “All projects” will be shown in a project context view of any project.

  • In case a calendar source is configured for a specific project. For instance, project DEMO, the calendar, along with the events that are based on the DEMO source will be shown in a project context view of DEMO project only.

Should you open the app in a project context view of another project, not DEMO, you will not see the events that are based on DEMO source. You may or you may not see the calendar that contains the DEMO source. In case there is another calendar source that has either project option “All projects“ or is configured for a given project, then, you will see the calendar. Note that DEMO source and its events will not be visible. You would have to open the app in a project context view of the project DEMO.

  • In case a calendar source is configured with the Project option “No projects“ the calendar, along with the events that are based on the source with the option “No projects” will not be shown in a project context view at all.

Tip

Tip: in case a specific calendar with its sources is not shown in a project context view of the project you want it to appear, please make sure that the calendar sources are configured either for the specific project you’ve been working with or with the option “All projects“.

The conditional color that includes the function “endOfWeek()“ is not working properly

You might experience the next issue when the configured conditional color that includes the function “endOfWeek()“ is not working correctly.

...

The root cause of the issue is laying in Jira’s behavior as, in Jira, week starts on Sunday.

What is the difference between Issue fields, Event fields, Report fields and Aggregated fields?

Issue fields- are the attributes of Jira issues. These are the standard and custom Jira fields. Examples: assignee, reporter, priority, due date, etc. The issue fields are used in source configuration, including conditional colors, and report field configuration.
