Beneficiary aggregation issues

Support - Assistance technique
1

Hi there,

Am new to DHIS2 and need some help with understanding how beneficiary
aggregation works / how to set it up. At the moment I am using a very
simple database with 3 people who have been enrolled in a program with a
single program stage that consists of a blood test. The patient data
element for this test is a simple 'yes / no' correlating to whether the
test was positive or not. I now want to count the total number of tests
performed (either yes or no) and the number of positives (yes only) into
two aggregate data elements ('Total number' and 'Total positive'). I
therefore created two separate aggregation query builders with the
following condition (where [DE:36.35.13] is the blood test program
stage data element):

[DE:36.35.13]
[DE:36.35.13] = yes

I thought that I could then click on a button and the data would be
aggregated and populate the correct data elements. However I see I need
to set-up a dataset to even try and aggregate. I therefore set-up a
dataset with the yes/no blood test patient data element. Selecting all
the weeks available and clicking on aggregate gave the message 'No
values added or updated'

I know that I am doing something majorly wrong, but can't for the life
of me work it out. Any general advice would be very gratefully received.
Am happy to supply more info if I haven't been clear on anything....

I am using DHIS2.1-snapshot on linux.

Thanks in advance
Dan

Hi Daniel,

Sorry about replying late.

I created a database according your idea to test.

Into Data Element menu :

  1. Create 3 dataelement:

  • Blood Test with Domain as “Patient”

  • Total number and Total positive with Domain as “Aggregate”

  1. Create a DataElement group for Aggregate DE with name as “Blood Test DE group”

Into Datasets menu:

  1. Create a dataset with name as “Blood Test Dataset”

Into Beneficiary and Program menu :

  1. Create a program with name “Blood Test Program”

  2. Create one stage for this program with name “Blood Test Stage” and add****“Blood Test” dataelement for this stage.

Into Beneficiary menu:

  1. Create 3 Beneficiaries, include :Beneficiary First, Beneficiary Second, Beneficiary Third for orgunit Ho Chi Minh City and enroll them into Blood Test Program.

Into Beneficiary Aggregation QueryBuilder menu :

  1. Create a condition to count the total number of tests performed with name “***Total number ***QueryBuilder” into “Total number” aggregate data elements.

  2. Create a condition to count the number of positives (yes only) with name “Total positive QueryBuilder” into “Total positive” aggregate data elements.

Into Name-Based Data Records,

  1. Enter PatientDataValue for DE “Blood Test” of Beneficiary First is “Yes”

  2. Enter PatientDataValue for DE “Blood Test” of Beneficiary Second is “No”

  3. Enter PatientDataValue for DE “Blood Test” of Beneficiary Third is “Yes”

Note: Choose the Report - Date for all is “2011-02-23”

  1. Click Case Aggregation menu,

11.1. Select Blood Test Dataset into Dataset List

11.2. Select Period from January 2011 to February 2011

11.3. Select Orgunit “Ho Chi Minh City”

11.4. Click “Aggregate” button

→ The result as follows:

I sent the database which I create to test. Please enclose the attachment file :slight_smile:

Into the step 6, to create a condition, we have to create dataelement-groups includes aggregate dataelements before. However, when run the conditions to get datavalues, we have to use datasets, not dataelement-groups.
