Jira workflow metrics and custom fields

How FieldCraft Works

Add powerful metrics to your Jira issues in three easy steps:

  • Add a FieldCraft custom field

    Create a new custom field via the native Jira Custom Fields page. Choose from Time in Status, Transition Count, Field Change Time, and more.

  • Configure your tracking criteria

    Select which statuses, transitions, or fields you want to monitor. FieldCraft's intuitive configuration lets you tailor each metric to your workflow.

  • Metrics update automatically

    FieldCraft continuously tracks issue activity in the background and keeps your custom field values up to date — no manual work required.

Available Custom Field Types

A growing library of specialized fields designed for process analysis and SLA management.

Time in Status

Measure exactly how long an issue has spent in any selected status. Ideal for SLA tracking, bottleneck analysis, and performance reporting.

Transition Count

Track how many times an issue has moved between statuses. Spot re-work patterns and workflow inefficiencies at a glance.

Reopen Count

Know exactly how many times an issue was reopened after being resolved — a key quality indicator for any engineering team.

First & Last Field Change Time

Capture the precise timestamp when a field was first or most recently changed. Perfect for audit trails and timeline analysis.

Modified By

Track which user last modified an issue field, providing clear accountability across your team's work.

Jira Expression Fields

Create unlimited calculated fields using Jira Expressions for fully custom metrics tailored to your unique business logic.
