Issue with Pivot Table/Multi Line Graph

Version: 2.18

Lesotho MOH DHIS

We are trying to report on one indicator summed by year broken out by OrgUnitOwnership.

Attempt # 1: When we run the query in a pivot table we are able to get the correct data (see below and attached diagram CorrectDataNoBreakdown.png)

When we convert that output to a chart of any kind (we opted for a line graph) we get the right numbers to appear in the chart but the data is not a multi-line graph breaking down the 4 different OrgUnitOwnership types. It just shows one line for the total of all OrgUnitOwners.

Attempt # 2: When we change the chart and move Data to a Dimension, we get the OrgUnitOwnership breakdown but the data itself is vastly incorrectly increased (see below and attached diagram CorrectBreakdownWrongData.png). Interestingly, we cannot create a chart or a pivot table with these settings from scratch. We have to revise the chart we created in Attempt # 1. If we try create a pivot table or a chart with the settings in Attempt #2, DHIS gives us the error: “The page at hmis.gov.ls says: 0 communication failure undefined”

We can take the table data in Attempt #1 and create a graph in Excel (see below) but we cannot create the same thing in DHIS. We want to incorporate this into a dashboard. Any ideas?

Hi Laura,

Try to move Data to the filter area in attempt 2, then you should see the correct values again.

The dimensions area is just a waiting/easy access area (showing recently used dimensions) and items there are not part of the chart / table. So your selected data is then for all data elements combined, which explains the high values.
