Symptoms

Users who are using the worklog functionalities that come with the Tempo add-on might want to disable the native log work module that comes with Jira out-of-the-box, in order to force the usage of the Tempo functions.

The purpose of this article is to show how to disable Jira's native workflow functionality.

Environment

Jira Server/Data Center on any version from 8.20.10.

Resolution

  1. Log in as a JIRA administrator, and select Administration > Manage apps
  2. Select System in the drop down
  3. In "Filter visible apps" search for Issue Operations Plugin, click on Modules, then disable the Ops Bar Work Link (log-work) module.

  4. Then again search or filter for Issue Tab Panels Plugin and click on Modules, then disable the Work Log Tab Panel (worklog-tab panel) module.

  5. The JIRA Log Work button is now removed on your Issue screen under the More button


    (info) If disabling the "+" button (on the issue view screen at the estimate time section) is needed, locate View Issue Panels click on Modules, then disable the webfragments.view.issue.timetracking.create.worklog module.
