Saving logs

This tutorial will provide various ways to create / edit worklogs

And here is how 'Log details' screen looks like:

Log details screen

Active clock

Here's how to save a log from an active clock

  • Click on clock > to start a clock
  • Click again on the clock to open 'Log details' screen
  • Fill up details for a worklog
  • Pro tip: All details are optional, so you can save instantly without entering anything. But to synchronize with JIRA, you will need to enter a ticket number and a comment.
  • To update actively running clock, open 'Log details' and edit clock / date
