Hi,
Is it possible to have datasets of monthly period and select 3 months fields upon selection of quarter period? This is important for simplicity of forms and user friendliness. I think this is not possible because only single period is selectable for data entry? Anybody had such requirement or is there an easy solution for this?
best regards,
murod
Dear Murod,
This is not available in DHIS2 at the moment. As you say you can only enter data for one given period at a time. What is available is only entering at multiple orgunits with sections datasets.

Thanks Prosper,
For the clarification. I found a solution by creating “month one”, “two” “three” category options. though data are saved for the quarter. This way we can have more accurate form and distinguish between months in a quarter.

Hi Murod,
Note that when you look at aggregate data values in analytics for yearly or six-monthly periods your month 1-2-3 category options will not make much sense anymore, so you need to be careful here not to cause confusion.
Information about the periodicity of the data should be captured in the period dimension to.
It’s definitely better to store this as monthly data values and rather develop a custom app for data entry that supports your requirements.
