Overview
Welcome to Missing Worklog Reminder – Automated Time Tracking Compliance for Jira Cloud
We’re proud to introduce Missing 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 Missing Worklog Reminder?
Missing 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 Missing 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.
❓ Still Not Sure If It’s Right for You?
If you’ve ever lost time chasing unlogged work, dealing with inconsistent time reports, or explaining missing billable hours — Missing Worklog Reminder will become your silent but reliable partner in keeping data clean and teams accountable.
