Issue with Aprrovals

Hi,

We are exploring approvals functionality in DHIS latest revision of 2.23. We came across an issue with approving data.

We set up two approval levels (say 1 and 2) and added a workflow that included both. We also created users at those levels giving the right authorities for approvals. Logged in as user 1 (user at level 1), went to “Data Approvals” in "Reports module and gave criteria to fetch data. Tables are generated, but when we click on “Approve” an exception is thrown.

Screen shot here shows the exception.

And here’s the log trace for the same:

Hi Archana,

I’m not sure why this problem is happening for you. I’m not seeing it on my system or on the demo system. But recently I added some extra checks when approving data, and it’s possible that this will fix your problem. Please try again with version 2.23 revision 22934 or later.

If that doesn’t work, please give me some additional guidance as to how I can reproduce the problem. Examples of what might be helpful:

  • If you can reproduce the problem on play.dhis2.org/demo, tell me how you did it.

  • Send more information so I can reproduce your setup on my machine.

  • Give me access to a server where I can see the problem.

Cheers,

Jim

Hi Jim,

Thanks for the response. We were using 2.23 version 22889. Maybe updating to a latest version should help. However, we tested the same on the demo server as well and there was an exception thrown.

Here’s how -
Added data to in a data set. Logged in as Guest user (by giving data approval authorities).
On the Reports Module, in Data Approvals, we selected data criteria - and selected data set and “Yearly” as time period. Data is fetched.

But when we try to approve by clicking on “Approve” button - an exception is thrown.

Here’s a snapshot of the exception.

Could you please let us know the reason?

Also, we want to know if we can do approvals for several data sets at a time? Is that possible currently?

How do approvals affect data synchronisation? And what are the challenges?

Thanks,

Hi Archana,

Thanks, I see the problem now. The dataset you are viewing, “PMTCT monthly summary”, is configured to use workflow “Mortality < 5 years”. This workflow has a frequency of “Monthly”. In the data approval report, you have selected “Yearly” as the time period. This mismatch is causing the bug. We will fix it one way or another (perhaps by disallowing the mismatch.)

Meanwhile, the feature should work as long as you choose the same time period in the report as the workflow frequency. In this case, since the workflow frequency is “Monthly”, if you select a data approval report of “Monthly”, it should work.

  • If you want to do approvals at a different frequency from the dataset, this is possible. For example, the dataset has an approval frequency of monthly, but it uses a workflow with frequency “Yearly”. So the data can be approved yearly, and this approves the data for all the months of the year.

  • If the data from several datasets should always be approved together, just assign the datasets to the same workflow. Approving for the workflow will approve the data in all datasets assigned to that workflow. Note that the datasets don’t all have to have the same frequency as the workflow. Some period types may be less, some equal, and some even greater. For example, you could have a workflow with frequency “Quarterly”, and assign to it various datasets with frequencies “Monthly”, “Quarterly”, “SixMonthly”, and “Yearly”. When you approve for 2016Q1, it approves the monthly data for Jan, Feb, Mar 2016 and the Q1 data. Approving for 2016Q2 approves for Apr, May, Jun, Q2, and the half-year. Q3 approves the three months in Q3 and any Q3 data. Q4 approves the monthly data for Oct, Nov, Dec, Q4, half-year 2, and the yearly data. The rule is simply if the dataset period ends within the workflow approved period, then the data is approved.

  • At the moment, there is no interaction between approvals and data synchronization. If data is synchronized from one system to another, it is synchronized regardless of approval status. Future possibilities include synchronizing approval records between systems as well as data, and/or synchronizing only data that is approved (at what approval level?) We would welcome your input as to how you would like approvals and data synchronization to work together.

Note that the data approval report asks you to select a dataset, as it has in the past. But starting with version 2.22 what is approved by this report is actually the workflow associated with that dataset – so it also approves data for any other datasets that may be attached to that same workflow. At some point we will likely be updating the data approval report so you select a workflow instead of a dataset. We are also in the process of updating all the user interface to the new app format – we might do these two at the same time.

The Web API for data approvals also approves by dataset, but in fact approves the workflow associated with that dataset (and the data for any other datasets associated with that workflow.) At some point in the future we will ad the ability to approve by workflow using the Web API, but for the moment if you just approve using one of the associated datasets with the workflow, it will have the same effect.

Cheers,

Jim

Hi Jim,

As you mentioned in the mail, that several data sets can be approved together by approving a workflow. How can that be done on the UI? Currently, on the demo server, we have to select a data set and reporting period to get the data for approval. And for different data sets, we have to make several selections. There is no select by workflow as of now. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

​Hi Theo,

While running a spike on Data Approvals on DHIS, we came across several functionalities that could suit our requirements. However, As Jim mentioned in the previous mail, there is no interaction between approvals and data synchronisation currently. They do have future possibilities of including it and they are welcome to take our input as to how we would like approvals and data synchronisation to work together.

So, let’s us have a discussion around this once you are back from pilot and let’s include Marta from OCBA as well. Thoughts on this?

If you approve any one of the datasets in a workflow through the UI, it approves all of the datasets in the workflow. We will fix this in the future so that you select the workflow instead of the dataset.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for all the information. It was very valuable. We will get back to you with inputs on how we would like data synchronisation and approvals to work together.

​Hi Theo,

While running a spike on Data Approvals on DHIS, we came across several functionalities that could suit our requirements. However, As Jim mentioned in the previous mail, there is no interaction between approvals and data synchronisation currently. They do have future possibilities of including it and they are welcome to take our input as to how we would like approvals and data synchronisation to work together.

So, let’s us have a discussion around this once you are back from pilot and let’s include Marta from OCBA as well. Thoughts on this?

Cheers

Thank you, Jim. That answers.

See earlier in this thread:

Note that the data approval report asks you to select a dataset, as it has in the past. But starting with version 2.22 what is approved by this report is actually the workflow associated with that dataset – so it also approves data for any other datasets that may be attached to that same workflow. At some point we will likely be updating the data approval report so you select a workflow instead of a dataset. We are also in the process of updating all the user interface to the new app format – we might do these two at the same time.

If you approve any one of the datasets in a workflow through the UI, it approves all of the datasets in the workflow. We will fix this in the future so that you select the workflow instead of the dataset.

Cheers,

Jim

Hi Jim,

As you mentioned in the mail, that several data sets can be approved together by approving a workflow. How can that be done on the UI? Currently, on the demo server, we have to select a data set and reporting period to get the data for approval. And for different data sets, we have to make several selections. There is no select by workflow as of now. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
