Problem Definition

As a JIRA Server user, it's possible to disable the Log Work option in Add-ons but specifies this is not possible in Cloud:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRAKB/How+to+disable+the+Log+Work+option+in+JIRA

Customers would like to disable in Cloud if they plan to use the Tempo Log Work option instead.

Even when the Log Work field is not added to a screen or issue layout, the option to Log work to an issue is still available, with Work log tab still appearing at bottom of issue, and under the three dots menu in the time right.

'Hiding' Log work in the Field Configuration only does so if the 'Log work' field was added to a screen. It does not work with the three dot menu or tab.

There should be a way to selective disable work log functionality at per issue type or at least per project basis.

Suggested Solution

Allow Cloud users to disable the Log Work option from JIRA
