Work Item Attributes

Last modified: 12 February 2025

Users can categorize the type of work that they perform in an issue by setting the value for various attributes in each work item. On the Time Tracking page, you can add your own work item attributes to YouTrack. These attributes are available for use in all projects that have time tracking enabled.

Project administrators can choose which work item attributes they want to use in each project. They can also add their own work item attributes on the Time Tracking tab of the Edit Project page. Work item types that are added directly in the settings for a project are also shown in the list on the Time Tracking page. For details, see Customize Work Item Attributes.

The instructions on this page list the Low-level Admin Write permission as a requirement. That's because the page in the administration section of the application is only available to users who have the Low-level Admin Read permission and the corresponding write permission is required to apply the changes described here.
