How to add multiple category combination to a data element

For data entry form I want to add more than category combination to data element to lay them side to side. To elaborate, On “youth advisory groups” data element I want to add 2 category combination called “population Reached(disaggrigated by sex and age)” and “Trained by amref(disaggrigated by sex and age)”… How can I achieve that ?

Hi @Eyuel_Nigussie

Welcome to the DHIS2 Community of Practice! :tada:

In this case, you’d probably need to create two data elements instead of one i.e. “youth advisory groups - population reached” and “youth advisory groups - trained by amref”. After that, create two disaggregation categories gender and age, and then add them to a category combination which will be assigned to each data element.

You can read more here: metadata.html#manage_category

I hope this helps. :slight_smile:

This will just create two rows (also two different data elememt) “youth advisory groups - population reached” and “youth advisory groups - trained by amref”. But what I want to know is how would I create a data entry with multi column. For example like in the below picture male and female columns
