Handling time tracking
While it's helpful for teams at an early stage of agile maturity to break their stories into tasks and provide estimated and actual hours at the task level, time tracking is generally not considered core to agile methods. Since organizations transitioning to agile or operating in a bimodal manner may require time tracking concurrent with agile estimation in story points, Atlassian provides a time tracking module for Jira Align. This goes beyond the roll-up of task hours flowing in from Jira Software to include time cards, booking time against various cost centers, and more.
The main benefits of handling time tracking in Jira Align are as follows:
- Submission Governance: Enforces timesheet submission windows and tracking, useful for regulated businesses and compliance.
- CapEx and OpEx Accounting: Enables you to categorize investments to optimize company financials.
- Output Measurement: Allows you to measure and report on actual work output...
