estimation and time tracking in a Kanban project

[Myriam]

Hi 

I am using a Kanban project and I'd like to track the time spent on each ticket. 

I found out the Time Tracking field and added it to the layout, but cannot find any field to declare the estimated time (at least in days - if hours are also available it would be perfect). 

And I'd like the time tracking field to automatically measure the remaining time each time the time spent is entered (like in a Scrum project). 

Could you please tell me how to do so? 

thank you

Are you working with a Company Managed project or a Team Managed project.

If you have included the Time Tracking "field"in your issue layout then you should see an Original Estimate field available. That is where you record the estimated time. As you use the Log Work function to log time against the issue, the dialog should show that the Time Remaining is automatically being recalculated based on the amount of time you enter.
