Option sets and data elements

Good morning,
Reference is made to tacker/event capture
Is it possible to have one data element having different option sets based on specific criteria?

Example:

data element_province (text)

data element_district.

Based on the value of the data element_province, the data element_district will show different option sets.

Sincerely

NG

Hi Nada,

This sounds like a “cascading drop down”. This is not supported directly in DHIS2, so you will need to implement your own front-end solution for this.

Hi Nada,

Are you collecting the same data at two levels? Is it a type of survey question regarding the organisational unit?

Perhaps you could have two different data elements linked to different data sets, which can then in turn be assigned at different levels?

Hi,

Cascading option sets have been recognised as a need for quite some time - see DHIS2-431. We have so far not managed to get this prioritised high enough, but I’ve had some preliminary discussions with Markus on how to do it

Calle

Greetings,
than you for the reply,

I have tried the solution to have various data elements with specific option sets.

Example:

  • Data element province with option set for all provinces

  • Data element district A with option set for all districts for province A

  • Data element district B with option set for all districts for province B.

  • Then i created a program rule to hide or show data element district A or data element district B based on the value of data element province,

It worked for a while than it was instable. The various data element district A and data element district B appeared at same time.

So i am searching for more stable solution.

Will it be possible with java script to assign different option sets for one data element based on another data element?

Sincerely

Nada Ghosn
