SIL Tempo Connector enables you to extend Jira by handling Tempo Timesheets objects so that you can sync data by updating Issues, Accounts and Teams in a timely manner.

We are excited to introduce the support for the popular Tempo Timesheets plugin to Jira including support for following datatypes:

- Accounts
- Teams
- Issues
- Timesheet attributes

## Key features

- Create your own functions in SIL™.
- Set the Team and Account fields automatically.
- Retrieve and parse  data for the attribute to all existing work logs. Or attributes can be automatically set when a work log is added.
- Update the relevant work log.
- Create a validator to check if a user is in the team defined in Tempo.
- Show or hide fields on the screen based on Tempo Team/Account.

## Use cases

- Automatically set the Team and Account fields when issue is created. Can be dynamic based on request type or organization.
- Set attributes on existing work logs. For instance - If a new attribute (like a custom field) is added to Tempo all existing work logs will not have data for this attribute. [Power Scripts™ for Jira](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.keplerrominfo.jira.plugins.jjupin/server/overview) can add data for this attribute to all existing work logs. Or attributes can be automatically set when a work log is added.
- Create a validator to check if a user is in the team defined in Tempo, if not the user cannot transition the issue.
- Show or hide fields on the screen based on Tempo Team/Account.
