Can't find a field from Timelines in Epics

Dana Weinbaum

Scenario:

I have a timeline under Plans -> I added a field "Estimates (d)" -> updated it.

When I go to the Epic - I can't see this field. I can't find it in the 'find your field' option, and the number is also updated in the 'Original estimate' for example (I thought maybe it will have a different name). 

Same for Initiative.

What am I missing here?

Thanks

Hi @Dana Weinbaum 

I believe "Estimates (d)" maps to the estimate fields in an issue (i.e Epic/Initiative).

You seem to suggest above you can see it in there, is that correct?

If not, did you commit your changes to Jira from the Plan? You can do this by...

  1. Going to your Plan
  2. Select the blue "Review Changes" button in the upper-right corner
  3. Save relevant modifications to Jira using the appropriate blue button

Thanks for replying so quickly.

I committed my changes but I don't see anything in the Epic.

The only field that I see in the Epic that is somewhat relevant is Original Estimate and there is no time logged there.

Hi @Dana Weinbaum 

The Estimates (d) field maps to "Remaining Estimate", which can be found inside the field "Time Tracking" on an Issue.

Yes! found it, thanks.

So a follow-up question (perhaps you know) - can't I use 'Original Estimate' in the timeline fields? I can't find it in the list of fields to choose from

Hi @Dana Weinbaum 

Not at this stage unfortunately - there is a feature request for it though, see: JSWCLOUD-20483
