Correcting an account mismatch

Worklogs might contain an Account field, through which the worklogs can be directly linked to an account. When you move or split a worklog, you might cause the worklog to be associated with an issue in a project that is not linked to the worklog's account. In such a case, where worklog account and project account do not match, the worklog is listed on the invalid worklogs page.

You can make the worklog valid by linking the project to the same account or by editing the worklog in any report.

In reports, you can identify invalid worklogs, which are listed with an account key but without an account name.
