Thanks for raising this question!

You can include the following three fields in the Outgoing sync of the Jira to add them to the replica:

```auto
replica.originalEstimate = issue.originalEstimate
replica.spent = issue.spent
replica.estimate = issue.estimate

```

Then to sync those values into the Original Estimate, Remaining, and Completed fields in Azure you need to add the following logic into your Incoming sync in Azure DevOps:

```auto
//Time Tracking
if(replica.originalEstimate) {
    workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.OriginalEstimate" = (replica.originalEstimate as Double)/3600
}
if(replica.estimate) {
    workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.RemainingWork" = (replica.estimate as Double)/3600
}
if(replica.spent) {
    workItem."Microsoft.VSTS.Scheduling.CompletedWork" = (replica.spent as Double)/3600
}

```

Kind regards,

Ariel
