Next-Gen Estimation feature with original estimate sum of sub-tasks

[Jógvan Olsen]

We have a next-gen Jira project with the "Estimation" feature enabled and using "Time" instead of "Story points".

It's using the "Original Estimate" field, but when having child issues the parent issue does have a "include child issues" option, but that's only for the "Time Tracking" field and not the "Original Estimate" field, resulting in, what we estimate does not show up in the sum showed in our backlog planning.

How can I get this to reflect in the backlog planning screen? If not possible natively, then a solution using "Automation", would also be fine.

Ah, I found my answer in this blog post in section 7.
