AGGEGRATED DATASET: YES / NO VALUE TYPE DOES NOT COUNT THE NOs - ALTERNATIVE?

Hello,

We have been working on a data set that needs a total scoring on 20 where each Yes = 1. In addition though, we also need to know a count of the items that were scored 0 and those that were not relevant to the project (so there is no value) or not assessed at all.

We’ve tried the Yes/No value type with an Aggregation type: Count and created three data elements (TEST HS MS DE, TEST HS MS DE 2 and TEST HS MS DE 3). This works quite well for the data entry where we ticked first as Yes, second as No and left the third one blank. However, when trying to visualise this data, the tools counts the number of items with a “Yes”, but seems to interpret the “No” as a 0, hence not giving us a count of the same. The second screenshot shows Data viz interprets this. With this kind of interpretation, we are unable to further make indicators to total up some/all of the elements as scores we require.

Is there something we may be missing or perhaps another way of addressing this sort of data set?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Carolyn
