How to create individual time reports in JIRA?

Hi everyone! I’m trying to figure out how to make time reports for each person on my team using JIRA. We’ve got time-tracking turned on, but the built-in report option isn’t cutting it for what I need.

I’m hoping to get a report that shows how much time each person spent working during a specific period. The current setup just doesn’t give me that info.

Does anyone know if there’s a way to do this with JIRA’s regular features? Or maybe there’s a free add-on that could help? I’ve looked around but haven’t found anything that fits the bill yet.

Any tips or suggestions would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!

As someone who’s managed teams using JIRA, I’ve found that the ‘Time in Status’ report can be a game-changer for individual time tracking. It’s not perfect, but with some tweaking, it can give you a good overview of each team member’s time allocation.

Here’s what I do: I create a custom workflow that includes statuses like ‘In Progress’ and ‘Review’. Then, I run the ‘Time in Status’ report, filtering by assignee. This gives me a breakdown of how long each person spent on different task stages.

For more granular data, I’ve used the JIRA Query Language (JQL) to create custom filters. You can then save these filters and use them in gadgets on your dashboard. It takes some time to set up, but once it’s done, you’ll have a much clearer picture of individual time spent.

Remember, though, that time tracking is just one piece of the productivity puzzle. Make sure you’re also looking at the quality of work and overall project progress alongside these time reports.

hey there! i’ve dealt with this before. try using the ‘worklog’ feature in JIRA. you can export worklogs to excel and make custom reports from there. it’s a bit of a workaround, but it gets the job done. hope this helps!

I’ve found a solution that might work for you. JIRA’s ‘Time Tracking Gadget’ can be customized to show individual time reports. Navigate to your dashboard, add the gadget, and configure it to display data per user. You can set the date range and filter by project or issue type. It’s not perfect, but it provides a quick visual of time spent by each team member. For more detailed analysis, consider using JIRA’s REST API to extract time data and create custom reports in a tool like Tableau or Power BI. This approach requires some technical skills but offers more flexibility in report design.
