Worklog-Types

What is it?

The problem you need to solve: You want to log work on an issue, but you want to specify on what kind of activity

How Minyaa solves this problem: Minyaa provides the concept of Worklog Types, allowing you to assign a category to your worklogs. e.g. analysis, development, testing

How it Works

Minyaa allows you to categorize your worklogs using a concept named Worklog Types.

When you log work, in the Fast Worklog Portlet or in the Log Work Page, you can specify the type of your worklog.

When this is done, you can do reporting on your worklogs to find how time was spent.

Where Is It Available?

Once your worklog types are configured, they are available in the following places:



JIRA's Default Log Work Page:

WorklogType in JIRA's Log Work page



FastWorklog Portlets:
