Problem: Your users are logging their work hours in Jira tickets. Every time this happens, you would like to check against Original estimate and notify your users (and perhaps somebody else) that the original estimate was exceeded.


Solution: Create a new Notification of type "Issue worklog added" and specify JQL rule like this: workratio > 100 

This effectively means that only those issues will qualify where condition (time logged / time spent) * 100 > 100 is true

Follows the example screenshot of such configuration:



As for message template, it could look like this:

<pre>
Hello

You've logged more time than was originally estimated for this task <a href="http://localhost:2990/browse/$issue.key">$issue.key</a> 

Logged time total: $!issue.fields.timespent
Original estimate: $!issue.fields.timeoriginalestimate
