Great news @mike on the cache issue of the capture app! For clarification, what does the funtionality check against when you talk about versioning?
Is it full metadata version increments or other (smaller) metadata changes?
Hi @LauraLincks,
We have functionality to capture events within categories in the existing tracker capture app, and you might have tried this already? As this is being reimplemented in the new Capture app it would be great to get more info on your use case. Happy to spin off a thread on that topic.
Data capture by any tracker in health facility is sub-set of the whole information generated from registration and multiple clinical interactions. How do you identify the variables to which data to be captured during each encounter?? as it varies from country to country.
It is great to capture picture . But how do you manage the uniqueness of an individual who get services at different sites…to avoid duplications and scattered medical records of the individual?
Currently Nepali calendar is not supported, as you know. We have started a bigger initiative looking at how we can handle multiple calendars throughout the solution. Would you need to do analytics based on Nepali periods as well, or are you mostly focused on registering data in Nepali format - to help users entering data?
