After Capacity Insights has been enabled for your Jira instance by Tempo, enable the Effort Tracking Mode mode. You can enable Reminder Mode for all teams or a subsection of teams. Users who are not part of a team use Standard Mode, which doesn’t create worklogs for them.

In Reminder Mode, worklogs are automatically created for your team members, and they are sent reminder emails to confirm that the worklogs are accurate. As Capacity Insights learns more about your organization, fewer reminders are sent.

Managers can also enable Reminder Mode for their teams after Capacity Insights

Excerpt

Automated effort tracking is the mechanism used to receive work signals from Tempo teams or organizations.

If you create a Tempo Team, automated effort tracking must be rolled out per team. Individuals who are not team members can't participate in automated effort tracking.

If you didn’t create a Tempo Team, automated effort tracking is enabled for all Tempo users.

You can enable Automated Effort Tracking for teams or for all Tempo users. If you want to get up and running quickly, with minimal setup, we recommend enabling it for all Tempo users.

Info

If you set up teams, managers can also enable Automated Effort Tracking for their teams after it has been enabled for the organization.
