LogSense Settings β€” General

Per-space configuration is in the LogSense Settings tab of space navigation (jira:projectPage). From version 1.1.0, values can inherit from site-wide global settings when the space has no override.

Access​

  1. Open the space in Jira.
  2. In the space sidebar, select LogSense Settings.
  3. Open the General tab.

General tab options​

Daily hour limit​

Defines the maximum hours a user can log on the same day within the space.

  • LogSense calculates the daily total via JQL (worklogAuthor = currentUser(), worklogDate) and paginated worklogs.
  • The logging form shows a daily limit progress bar.
  • If the API cannot verify the limit, the app does not block the user (fail-safe).

Default billable​

Sets whether new entries are created as billable or non-billable by default. Users can change the value per entry.

Estimates​

Controls how entries relate to the issue's original estimate (estimate progress bar in the logging form).

Holiday blocking​

When enabled, prevents logging time on dates marked as holidays in the space calendar (Holidays tab).

Holiday validation

Blocking depends on the selected form date matching a holiday configured in the space. See Holiday calendar.

Inheritance from global settings​

If the space has not saved its own values on this tab, LogSense applies defaults from Site-wide global settings (daily limit, default billable, estimates, and holiday blocking).

Configure the site first

Define corporate defaults globally and use per-space overrides only for exceptions (e.g. a client space with a different daily limit).

Best practices​

  • Set a daily limit aligned with the team's contractual workday (e.g. 8 h).
  • Enable default billable on client spaces and non-billable on internal spaces.
  • Configure holidays before enabling blocking to avoid unexpected rejections.
