Problem with time tracking
Answered
Hello,
I just registered for the trial version of the cloud hosting of youtrack but I quickly encountered a problem with time tracking.
I followed the tutorial i found here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/standalone/7.0/Time-Management-Tutorial.html
Yet there is no new tab for time tracking on my issue cards.
Manually trying to change the spent time field shows the following error: 'Cannot change field "Spent time"'
Edit: the url for my board is: https://wielinktest.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/agiles/91-0/92-0
Any help would be appriciated

Hello! Could you please tell, how do you add spent time? Do you log work items as described here? https://www.jetbrains.com/help/youtrack/standalone/7.0/Time-Management-Tutorial.html#d164426e193
It is expected that you can't edit the Spent time field since the only proper way to add spent time is to add work items.
When you've added a work item, do you see a Time Tracking tab? Does the Spent time field value change after that?
Please also note that at the moment when you open an issue by double-clicking it on the board, it is shown in a special mode which doesn't include Time Tracking tab. To see this tab, you need to open your issue in a new tab.
Hi Liubov Dievskaia,
Thanks for responding and clearing up my problem,
Somehow I thought I should be able to add time by double clicking on the issue, by actually opening the issue I was able to add time spent.
Maybe a little off-topic, but is there a way to enable the time tracking tab when you double click on an issue?
Thanks again!
