You can add additional fields to the form that users fill out when they log their work. These additional fields are called worklog attributes. Examples of worklog attributes are Overtime, Account, and Transport Costs.
Adding Worklog Attributes involves the following steps:
- Log in as a user with the JIRA Administrators Global Permission.
- Select Add-ons from the Administration menu (cog icon: ) at the top right of your screen. Then scroll down to Tempo administration left tabs and choose the Worklog Attributes option.
Tip: Use Keyboard Shortcut instead: g then g and start typing Worklog Attributes.

- Account

- Numeric values that can be summed up in the report exported excel file.
The Account attribute can only be created once to add the /wiki/spaces/TEMPO/pages/365199764 as a worklog attribute, which will link the Account attribute to the Worklog itself but not the JIRA issue. The Account is normally inherited from the JIRA issue, but creating an Account attribute means that that connection is broken. Note that the Account is read from the issue if none exists on the worklog. This is to ensure backwards compatibility.
All Worklog Attributes are displayed in the Tempo Log Work window and can be edited In-line in timesheets and in the report and list views.
