Remaining time <-> Due Date related

[vincenzo_spatafora]

Dear Community,

I would like to create an automation rule with the following logic: 

1. (Trigger) When the user logs the time spent in an issue
2. (Condition) The issue is a sub-task
3. Take the remaining estimate value of the sub-task’s parent
4. Take the parent due date and work-out if there is still sufficient time to meet the due date
5. If not, a warning email is sent to me

 Is that first of all possible to implement?

If so, could you please help me out as I don’t know the syntax to use.

 Thanks in advance,

Vincenzo.

Hi @vincenzo_spatafora ,

There is built-in function in "Time tracking" to include Logged Work from Sub-tasks into "parent" issue: 

I believe that might work for the first part of your question.

For the mail part you can create a JQL filter and subscribe to it where you can choose times when it can be sent:

"project = XXXX and remainingEstimate <= 5", depends on what amount is seen as indicator of not sufficient time left.

Thanks @Ekaterina Smykova.

But how can I work-out via the automation rule if the remaining time is still sufficient to meet the due date.

Cheers, Vincenzo.
