Monthly Worklog Automation and Reporting
Every month, Notis pulls time data from Asana tasks and populates Jira worklogs automatically, so you have unified reporting on effort and productivity.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Get Issue Worklogs
Retrieves worklogs for a jira issue with user permission checks.
Why this helps
Time tracking data lives in Asana but your Jira worklogs stay empty. You manually copy effort data or give up on tracking altogether, losing visibility.
- Consolidate time tracking from both tools into one report
- Reduce manual worklog entry and copy-paste errors
- Enable accurate productivity and capacity planning
- Maintain complete audit trail of work and effort
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Set up Asana and Jira integrations in Notis.
- 2Tell Notis: 'Every month on the 1st at 8am, pull time-tracking data from Asana tasks completed in the prior month and add worklogs to corresponding Jira issues.' Notis searches both systems and reconciles the data.
- 3Set trigger to 'Monthly on the 1st' (or your preferred date) and choose your notification channel.
- 4On the next scheduled date, Notis runs automatically and sends a summary of synced worklogs to your channel.
Questions about this workflow
What if Asana and Jira time data don't match?
Notis can reconcile by preferring one source (e.g., 'Use Asana time as the source of truth') or by merging both data sources. You choose.
Can I exclude certain tasks or team members from the worklog sync?
Yes. Refine your prompt: 'Only sync worklogs for tasks tagged tracked' or 'Skip time entries from contractors.' Notis filters accordingly.
How is time attributed if multiple people worked on a task?
Notis can split time proportionally based on Asana's time tracking, or you can define custom rules for attribution.
What format are the worklogs in?
Notis creates Jira worklogs using the standard format (issue, user, hours, date). They appear in Jira's worklog section and reporting.
