Use case
Using the time tracking feature within Jira is a great way to keep on track of your finances.
In the following use case we're going to extend this functionality by automatically adding a 20% profit margin when a ticket is closed.
This way this step never gets forgotten again.
Configuration
Add the Log work post function to the desired workflow transition or create a new transition.
Target issue
Choose Current issue
Time spent
Enter the following expression:
{issue.timeSpent} * 0.2
Starting date-time
Leave this one empty. This way the current date and time will be used as starting time.
Work description
Enter a comment like:
Automatically added 20% profit margin when closing issue using JWT.
Additional information
Remaining estimate
Choose Retain remaining estimate
Select this option, if the profit margin should not be subtracted from the remaining estimate. If it should be subtracted from the remaining estimate, select the other option.
