### Step 3: Adjusting Your JQL Query

 

By default, Memtime imports all tasks assigned to you using this query:

```
assignee = currentUser()
```

If you want to create a more specific search query, you can use ChatGPT for help. For example, you can try the following prompt:

*Can you create a JQL search query that will give me all projects that are assigned to me and also are not completed, closed or canceled?*

After changing your JQL query, make sure to **refresh the Project Management tab** in Memtime to apply your changes. We’ll cover that in the next step.

### Step 4: Create Jira Server + Tempo Time Entries in Memtime

1\. Open the **Project Management** tab in Memtime and click the **Refresh** button to import your latest tasks and projects.

![refresh projects universal-1](https://knowledgebase.memtime.com/hs-fs/hubfs/refresh%20projects%20universal-1.png?width=476&height=247&name=refresh%20projects%20universal-1.png)

2. Switch to the Time Tracking tab and create a time entry by clicking and dragging in the Time Entries column.

In the Time Entry window, you’ll now see **Jira Server + Tempo** available as a Connected App.

3\. Log into your Jira Server + Tempo account and open any ticket with logged time. You’ll see that time entries from Memtime are automatically synced.

**Automatic Synchronization:**  
Memtime automatically exports time entries created in Memtime to Jira Server + Tempo. Similarly, any time entries created directly in Jira Server + Tempo are exported to Memtime by default.
