Working Days and Hours

 

Worked hoursBy default FOLIO will evaluate the worked hours of a team member based on its availability defined in the member's wage table.
The owner can manually override the computed hours with a specific value for a specific period for each team member via the worked hours table.
If JIRA is used to track time spent on the issues (using JIRA itself or any other Time tracking add-ons such as Tempo) FOLIO can be set to retrieve the team members worked hours directly from the issue worklogs by enabling the "Synchronize with JIRA's work logs" option.
Hours per DayNumber of working hours per day (Default JIRA Hours per Day settings)
Working DaysWorking days per week (Default JIRA Days per Week settings)
Non-Working DatesA non-working date such as a public holiday.
