How can I change the estimation type in kanban project?

[Or Pershikov]

I want to change the estimation type from story points to the original estimation (hours and minutes)

Hi @Or Pershikov 

Please take a look at this documentation https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/configure-estimation-and-tracking/:

1. From your company-managed board, select more (•••) in the upper right corner of the board > Board settings.

2. Select Estimation from the left-side menu.

3. Adjust the estimation settings as you desire.

   1. Use the Estimation Statistic dropdown to change how issues are estimated on your board.

   2. Use the Time tracking section if you’d like to use a different method to track progress on your board. It’s common for teams to estimate work then track progress using two different methods.

      1. Selecting None uses what you’ve defined as the Estimation Statistic to track progress.

      2. Selecting Remaining estimate and time spent tracks progress by subtracting the value from the Time spent field from the original estimate. Learn more about logging time to issues.

To configure project estimates for team-managed projects:

Estimation isn’t enabled by default in team-managed projects. Enabling estimation causes several changes that you should be aware of before doing it. Learn about the changes that happen when enabling estimation in team-managed projects.

1. From your team-managed board, select Project settings from the left menu.

2. Find Features on the left menu, and find the feature labeled Estimation.

3. Select whether to use Story points or Time.

Estimation is not displayed in the features list and not on the board settings

And there is no estimation in kanban?

You can use the time tracking field to place estimation on issues if that's what you mean.
