Planning with Original Estimate

With this feature, you can automatically plan tasks using Jira’s Original Estimate. Just set the task’s start and end dates along with the original estimate, and TimePlanner will divide the estimated hours across the duration, simplifying project planning.

Important Note: This feature is available only for Jira Field Mapping Projects.

Here is how to get started:

STEP 1

Make sure the Jira Field Mapping feature is enabled for your selected project in the app. If it is not yet activated, please refer to this guide for detailed instructions.

STEP 2

Go to Settings → Select General tab → Enable ‘Plan with Original Estimation Field’ button.

STEP 3

After that, let's create an Issue → input the start date, end date, and original estimate → then assign it to an assignee → task will be allocated automatically within TeamBoard TimePlanner.

STEP 4

Once the task is scheduled, you can adjust start and end dates by dragging the task card in TeamBoard TimePlanner → The daily task duration will automatically adapt to maintain the original estimate.
