Permissions

Prerequisites

To configure Jira or App permissions, you must be logged in as a user with the JIRA Administrators global permission.

Jira Global Permission

Under “System” > “Security” > “Global permissions” there is a "Timetracker Access" global permission after installing the app.

Administrators can manage access to Timetracker pages and functions for specific groups within your organization. If a user does not have this permission, the user won’t see any app related menu item or page in Jira and won’t be able to reach them.

App Global Permissions

These are Timetracker's own permissions, which are related to Timetracker's pages and functions and will only be valid within the app.

To configure a permission:

  1. Click on the permission's input field.

  2. Start typing the required JIRA user or group name.

  3. Select the user or group from the appearing list.

 

Permission to Log Work

By default, it is empty and all users can view and use Timetracker's work logging functionality.

You can narrow this down by adding Jira users or groups here, in which case only these users will have the permission.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • view Timetracker menu item

  • view and use time tracking page

Permission to use Reporting

By default, it is empty and all users can view and use Timetracker’s reporting functionality.

You can narrow this down by adding Jira users or groups here, in which case only these users will have the permission.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • view Reporting menu item

  • view and use reporting pages

Permission to report other users' worklogs

By default, it is empty and any user can report any other user’s worklogs.

You can narrow this down by adding Jira users or groups here, in which case only these users will have the permission, while every other user will only see their own worklogs.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • view other users' worklogs on the reporting pages

  • otherwise, users can only see their own worklogs

Permission to manage global and project-specific billing settings

By default, it is empty and none of the users have permission to manage global and project-specific billing settings.

Add Jira users or groups here who will have permission to manage billing. The billable/non-billable options will remain visible and selectable to all users when logging work.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • set and modify default billing option

  • add and modify project default billing option

Permission to manage Tags

By default, it is empty and none of the users have permission to create, edit, archive or delete worklog tags.

If you want to enable this option, provide users or groups who can manage the tags here. The tags remain visible and selectable to all users when logging work.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • create, edit, archive or delete tags

Permission to create worklogs to the past/future without restrictions

By default, it is empty and the configured day limit within which users can log work is enforced on every user.

Here you can add users or groups who will still be able to create and edit worklogs beyond the configured days.

If user/group is selected, only users with this permission can:

  • create/edit worklog beyond the configured loggint time to the past or future.
