Start work automatically - Time Reports

From now a work record in Time Entry Issue Panel starts automatically when some (see below) issue is open. Note, any previous work timer running on another issue will stop.

This happens if Time entry panel available for particular issue and user in app Configuration, Access tab:

And also issue should be one matching In Progress Issues JQL option in User Preferences or app Configuration, Default User Settings tab:

Note, to disable automatic work entries, it is necessary to leave empty value. If you need a separate option to enable/disable automatic tracker, so that you can use In Progress Issues without automatic tracker, please, let support know at Support Portal.

Mechanics behind the scenes, is as follows. The timer counts real time, while issue is open in browser, and stores temporary value every 10 seconds in browser local storage. All timers can be seen on report page in Time Entry view also.
