Hello and good afternoon,
I am Benjamin Haindapa from Papua New Guinea. My country is trying to introduce DHIS 2 for reporting of most of our public health diseases. Its something new and I am trying to understand so many things about DHIS 2. If we develop our programs on older version, will it affect the way we are entering data into the tracker app within DHIS 2?

Hi @bhaindapa1

Programs developed on older versions should generally be supported on later versions.
Naturally, we would advise to to start on the highest version possible. That way your version will be supported for longer, plus you will be able to take advantage of any new features in the latest version.

Kind regards,
Phil
