trouble with the Default form for data entry

Hi everyone.

I am running 2…28 and am having a hard time getting the default data entry form to include the category options. According to
here
:

" A default form consist of a list of the data elements belonging to the data set together with a column for inputting the values.
If your data set contains data elements with a non-default category combination, for example age groups or gender, additional columns are automatically created in the default form based on the different categories"

However, when my default data entry form looks like this:

Where:

Category Name: Gender

Data Dimension Type: Disaggregation

Category Option: Male, Female

Category Combination Name: Gender

Data Dimension Type: Disaggregation

Data Element: Persons Trained

Category Combination: Gender

Domain Type: Aggregate

Data Set: Monthly F Data Set

Category Combination: None

Data Element: Persons Trained

It feels like I have something cached, but I can’t figure out what (I have tried clearing the browser cache many times)

Is there anything else I can do?

Hi, please ensure that you have attached the the right category combination to the data element and it should work.

Could you share with us the data element details?

Regards

Hi Adam Preston

Kindly look in category option combo if the option combos have already created or not.

Hi Adam Preston,

Also please check that the category combination Gender contains the category Gender. (It’s not enough for them to have the same name.)

Cheers,

Thanks for the emails everyone. Turns out I was running on 2.25 and when I upgrade to 2.28 today and recreated the dataset it started working as expected. Hard to say what fixed it, but at least its fixed. Thanks again!
