Navigation and visibility

You can open the billing management page by selecting the “Billing” item from the left sidebar.

Only users who have the “Permission to manage global and project-specific billing settings” app permission will be able to configure the defaults.

By default, anyone can view the billing management page, and the contained settings as well, but only users with a new permission type will be allowed to change the defaults.

Global default billing option

You can see a “Default billing option” configuration here, which determines if every new worklog will be created as billable or non-billable by default. Turning this ON will set all worklogs as billable.

Project default billing option

The default billing status of a worklog can also be controlled on a project level. In this case, a new worklog’s default billing status will be set according to the selected issue of one of the configured projects. For any other project, the global “Default billing option” configuration will apply.

You can also see your project-based configurations in three separate tabs:

To configure a new project, click the “New project settings” button in the top right corner, select the project, and the default billing option. It is recommended to select and configure projects that are fewer and different than the global default option.

(warning) These settings only control the billing option’s default state, but any user can change the option at any time on any worklog.
