How do I get a story issue to include hours estimates from the sub tasks?

Hello All,

I want to the summation of all sub task in the story as the remaining estimate/Original Estimate as the value in Stories.

For Example

Story 1 - 

Task 1 Original Estimate: 4 Days, Remaining Estimate : 2 Days

Task 2 Original Estimate: 3 Days, Remaining Estimate : 1 Days

Bug 1 Original Estimate: 2 Days, Remaining Estimate : 1 Days

Story 1 should be updated as summation of Original Estimate and Remaining Estimate as : Original Estimate: 9 Days (4+3+2), Remaining Estimate : 4 (2+1+1)Days

Thanks in Advance,

Bunty

@Bunty , When you have subtasks that have the time tracking field available on their screen, you will see this once you add them to you Story (parent issue).

Make sure the box is checked and then the estimated & remaining times will total all the subtasks plus the parent and any time logged will be shown accordingly.

Hi @Peter DeWitt

It is calculating only sub-tasks time. How to calculate for linked issues?

For Example: 

I want calculate 2 Tasks and 1 Bug issue Time tracking on story issue type.

Thanks in Advance,

@Bunty , That is not going to work for Linked issues; only true subtasks associated with the Jira Story will roll up. What you could do is create a few new subtasks that represent other types of work and use those as a part of the story instead of the linked issues. -pjd
