General information

Time values can be manipulated and might depend on certain factors. These are listed below. 

Time Macros

While the number of milliseconds might be useful in some cases, usually you want to retrieve values that are more readable (e.g. when being used in calculated fields).

Macros are aliases for fixed values. They are often used to convert milliseconds to a more accessible value.

Code Block
timeLogged(subtasks())

This example returns the sum of all timelogged on all subtasks of the current issue in milliseconds (see timeLogged() for more examples).

If you want to display the value and maybe compare it wit an original estimate you might need the number of hours instead. Simply divide the results by the {HOUR} time macro and you get the number of hours instead.

Code Block
timeLogged(subtasks())/{HOUR}



The following macros return the day of the week:

Time zones

Fields of type date and date-time contain a numeric value with the milliseconds elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT.

The number that will be returned by any function using a date or date-time timestamp depends on a time zone.
