Hi. I am unable to order data elements in the Section form Dialog box. The names are similar and DHIS2 does not bring up the name when the mouse is hovered above the Data Element Name to help with sorting. I have attached the

Hi Mukhtar,
One suggestion could be to shorten the DE name so that more of the detail is visible
Currently the naming is:
AP3 - Number of children aged < 19 years …
A suggestion is to improve the DE naming so it becomes shorter and fits more with standard naming conventions. I would use the following:
AP3 Child 0-18 years …
I am sorry that I do not have a suggestion to see the DE name with the mouse hover.
The standard is to use singular (child not children), not using the phrase ‘Number of’ and reducing the spacing between years.
I hope this helps you
Norah
