Logging work from the Jira Issue view

You can log work on an issue directly from the consolidated Tempo panel in the Jira Issue view, and perform related tasks such as moving and splitting worklogs. If you only have Timesheets installed, you will not see plans and Plan time options. If you have permission to view data for other users, you can choose to view all worklogs, or only your own.  You can also access Tempo reports directly from the panel to view issue worklog data (or plan data) for any period you choose. Worklog totals are also displayed on the Jira Issue view.

The Tempo panel in the Jira issue view

The Tempo panel is displayed in the Jira issue view. Worklogs, plans and expenses are ordered by date and color-coded so you can easily identify them. You can quickly filter the data you view in the Tempo panel to display only worklogs, plans or expenses, and choose whether to display all issue data, or only your own. By default, all types are displayed.

You can access Tempo Reports directly from the panel to view issue worklog data for any period you choose. Simply click the ellipses (...) to the right of the +Log Work button and select Issue Worklogs.
