Time in Status Table

The Time in Status Table custom field is a calculated field that displays how long an issue has remained in the configured status values; the field displays all selected statuses and the total time for each status in a table format. It is a read-only field.

When creating the field, you can configure it to monitor any number of status values, and you can include any status values that exist in your instance. You should verify that the status values you have selected for a Time in Status Table field are the same status values in the Workflow for the project and issue types to which you have added the custom field!
