The Response Time Calculators measure the time elapsed between an issue's creation and specific events related to public comments. They provide valuable insights into team and individual responsiveness. The calculators determine the “response” and “no response” time:
The First Response Time Calculator determines the time passed until the first public comment.
The No Response Time Calculator determines the “no response time” and displays data for issues that have yet to receive a response.
Step 1: Create a Response Time Calculator
From Jira settings, navigate to Manage Apps.
From the side menu, find
Enhancer Plugin for JIRA.Click Custom Field Configuration.
Click the Add new JEP custom field button.
Click the Duration tab on the left-hand side of the dialogue.

No Response Time Calculator
Step 2: Configure the field
Fill in the details of the custom field:
First Response Time Calculator
No Response Time Calculator
Name – Assign a descriptive name to the custom field.
Working calendar – If you want to calculate the time according to a specific calendar, select it from the dropdown.
Only public comments – If this is enabled, it will calculate the time until the first public comment which can be seen by all users (and isn't restricted to specific users or groups).
Except reporter – If this is enabled, it will omit the comments from the reporter. Otherwise, the response time will be calculated from the creation date until the first comment is made (no matter who commented).
Time formatter – Configure the time display options (both for the issue main view and navigator view). The Use Separator lets you define your own separator for the time display. You can also choose not to have a separator.
Click the Save custom field button.
You must link the custom field with the appropriate screens to see them. For more information, refer to the Jira documentation.
