I haven’t yet been able to get this to work. It seems like program indicators can only be used with Event Tracker data, if I’m not mistaken? I am trying to do this for aggregate data. For example, I want to create an indicator that represents the ratio between the number of malaria cases in April 2024 to the number of malaria cases in April 2023. This means the numerator would be the standard dataElement representing this, and the denominator would be the same dataElement, but 12 months prior. These numbers are reported at the level of the health center, already in aggregate.
Is it possible to use this d2:monthsBetween
functionality with indicators? Or maybe use the .periodOffset
?
My question may be related to this post here: Is it possible to use periodOffset expression in Aggregate indicators on Custom Forms to display previous Months' data?. I have just been quickly checking in the DataEntry app but perhaps I need to verify via the visualization app instead.
Thanks in advance!
