Program stages (timeline vs tabular) layouts in Tracker Capture

Hi @carlos.massavanhane,
Welcome to the community!

I believe I can answer your question and I’d like to quote Markus above:

@Markus

The timeline data entry (should)use the dates of the event for sorting of the individual events. The tabular entry uses the order of the program stages for the tabs on the left side, and internal to each program stage the event date of the individual events is used for sorting

Another community member had the same issue recently but there’s a difference between the timeline and tabular sorting. If what you are looking for is static order then I think you could go for the tabular format. Here’s a nice explanation from @Caroline:

@Caroline

It is possible to change from Timeline Data Entry to Tabular data entry. The tabular data entry will automatically order your program stages as they are ordered in maintenance.

Follow these steps to change to tabular data entry:

1. Open a TEI, look up at the top of the page to the right, you will see the icon with the gear as shown in the picture below. Select Show/hide widgets.

2. Add the blue marking on Tabular data entry, and remove it from timeline data entry. Then close.

3. You will now se the data entry has changed to tabular, and should be in the same order as in maintenance. The tabular is always static, regardless of which date you set on the different stages.

Thanks!
