Importing Data Set Values into DHIS 2.13

Hello Team,

I am working on importing data containing drugs distribution data from a pharmacy system into DHIS2.

I have created the data elements and dataset. My questions are :

i) Is it possible to import the CSV into DHIS2 using the DHIS2 CSV import ?

ii) If yes in (i) How do ensue the file imports into the right data set as well as data elements ?

Your assistance is highly appreciated.

Hi Jason,

I have seen and read the manual i.e. http://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch19s03.html just now. Does this mean I have to convert the file format to the CSV format for DHIS2?

Hi David,

If you are going to import CSV data it must be in the format detailed in the user manual. Other possibility would be XML,also described in the user manual.
