    Description

      This situation has been mentioned on the Jira forum and comments in other issues.
      This causes serious problems with our workflow as it destroys the reliability of hour timesheet reports

      See this comment from JRA-1993:
      I wanted to use post-functions of workflows. I am setting remaining time to 0 there. Unfortunately I have the following problem: if nobody has logged any work till the moment when the issue is closed (or resolved) then this post-function in fact resets original estimation to 0 (instead of resetting remaining time). Our people often close issues and then report time spent. It means disaster for us - original estimations are erased.
      With the lack of support for logging work on transition screen - I cannot handle it.
