Change estimation units in your plan
This page refers to the advanced planning features that are only available as part of Jira Cloud Premium and Enterprise.
You can choose which unit to use when estimating work items in your plan. Estimation for work items can be based on time (hours or days) or story points.
To change the estimation units in your plan:
Next to your plan’s name in the sidebar, select More actions (•••), then Plan settings.
In the Scheduling tab, select whether you’d like your plan to be estimated in Hours, Days, or Story Points.
Story points and time-based estimates (hours and days) are not interchangeable. For this reason, changing this setting will erase any work item estimations not already saved to your work items in Jira.
