Time Tracking
Time Tracking lets you log the actual time worked on each issue per user. It's useful for future estimates, team capacity analysis, and in commercial contexts, for effort-based billing.
How It Works
Each time entry consists of:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| User | Who logged the time (filled in automatically) |
| Start | Date and time the session began |
| End | Date and time the session ended (or duration in minutes) |
| Note | Optional description of work performed |
Logging Time

- In the Time section, click ▶ Start.

- An entry is created with the elapsed time. Add an optional note and save.
