Made it to the top. Its been an interesting journey. I have been dissecting the system and impoverishing. It’s been worth the time.

[Gassim (AL-Gassim Sharaf Addin)]

Yes, @jetisco4u, thank you so much for your participation! The questions you ask will help other community members too and it surely gives experts the opportunity to contribute. I wish you success in the DHIS2 learning and career path you are taking!

Thank you for sharing! I believe many in the community feel the same.

[jetisco4u (Jet)]

You are right about the questions asked. I have found many helpful answers from questions asked by others. I only asked if I can’t get answer already in the community.
