InJira Server: Just have to add the timetracking field in the subtask screen. The parent issue have field ∑Original Estimate that summarize estimations from the subtasks.

You need jira administration permission or extended permissions as Project Admin. TimeTracking must be enabled in the instance.

First, are you JIRA Admin? (To see if you can check the Story screen: https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/defining-a-screen-938847288.html)

Send me your JIRA Version.

Could you send me print screen of what you see on the story screen (similar to the one I send).

Let’s Check in the Issues navigator to add the summarize original estimation field that I mention

1.- Go to Issues menu

2.- Search issues

3.- Add Column (image attached) -

4.- Select the field.

5.- Move the column (it will be added at the end)

 

And do a search of the issue, and send me the print screen. So I know what can be going on.
