Overview
Welcome to Worklog Reminder – Automated Time Tracking Compliance for Jira Cloud
We’re proud to introduce Worklog Reminder, your intelligent assistant for keeping Jira worklogs accurate, complete, and policy-compliant — automatically.
Whether your goal is to enforce time-tracking discipline, improve billing accuracy, or simply help teams stay on top of daily logs, our app runs quietly in the background and keeps everyone accountable.
🚀 What Is Worklog Reminder?
Worklog Reminder is a Forge-based Jira Cloud app that continuously monitors user worklogs against configurable policies.
It identifies missing or incomplete entries, triggers targeted reminders, and maintains transparent compliance records — all without manual follow-up.
Through scheduled checks and policy-driven automation, it ensures that your teams log their time correctly every day, week, or month.
You define the rules — the app does the rest.
💡 What Problems Does It Solve?
- Forgotten or incomplete worklogs: Automatically detect when users miss their daily or weekly logging targets.
- Inconsistent reporting: Maintain accurate utilisation data for billing, audits, or sprint retrospectives.
- Manager overhead: Stop chasing people for updates — the app reminds users directly in Jira.
- Compliance visibility: Gain a clear overview of who’s compliant, who’s lagging, and how quickly issues are resolved.
🌟 Why Worklog Reminder Stands Out
- Automated background checks
Policies run on a schedule, analysing users and groups in the background. No need for manual reviews or Excel exports. - Flexible policy rules
Configure thresholds (daily, weekly, monthly) and decide whether to apply them per project, per user group, or globally. - Smart notifications
Deliver reminders directly inside Jira — as flags, comments, Jira emails or redirects — ensuring users see them exactly where they work. - Self-service dashboards
Each user gets a “My Reminders” page showing unresolved escalations and compliance history, so they can act fast and stay accountable. - Transparent audit trail
Every policy run and reminder is logged, giving admins traceability for audits, finance, or HR reviews. - Privacy-conscious by design
The app stores only the data it needs: hours, time windows, and policy metadata — not work descriptions or sensitive notes.
🎯 Who Is It For?
- Team Leads – Track who’s falling behind on worklogs without micromanaging.
- Finance or PMO Teams – Validate logged hours before billing or reporting.
- Administrators – Configure rules once and let automation handle reminders.
- Developers & Analysts – Get transparent feedback when logs are missing, without endless emails.
🧠 Example Use Cases
- Enforce daily 8-hour logging policies with flexible grace periods.
- Run weekly checks before billing cycles close.
- Detect missing logs for external clients to ensure accurate invoicing.
- Provide individual feedback loops that help users correct issues early.
🛠 How It Works (In a Nutshell)
- Define your policy — rules, audience, and reminder type.
- The app runs scheduled checks against Jira worklogs.
- Missing entries trigger reminders (flags, comments, or redirects).
- Users view and resolve their escalations in My Worklog Reminders.
- Administrators monitor compliance through the policy diagnostics dashboard.
