How to Copy "Original Estimate" to "Remaining Estimate" when Original Estimate is modified on a JIRA Issue

Summary

Jira Admins would like to have the automation where, when the "Original Estimate" is changed, then the "Remaining Estimate" should also get updated to the same value.

Solution

• The automation rule/Structure looks like below:

• When: Value changes for Time tracking

• If: Compare two values

  Checks if:

  {{fieldChange.field)) equals timeoriginalestimate

• Then: Add value to the audit log.

  { {timeoriginalestimate)}

• And: Edit issue fields

  Remaining Estimate (smart value: {{timeoriginalestimate.divide(60)}})
