Unable to delete/overwrite favorites-DHIS2 2.21

Hi

I am unable to overwrite and delete favorites from GIS. It actually behaves inconsistent because sometimes it does allow overwriting or deleting but other times it does not.I am using DHIS2 2.21. Is this a known issue? Any help is appreciated.

Are you sure you have the same sharing access to the favorites? You are supposed to be able to delete the ones you have created yourself, but not those shared with you, I would assume. Unfortunately, I cannot see the image you included.

Hi Dipali,

Is the favorite added to a dashboard? If yes, you are currently not allowed to delete/write to it.

We should probably look at a better way to handle this.

Hi Jan

No, it is not added to any dashboard. In fact I realized that a map view can’t be deleted if it was edited. So if I,

Create map favorite >> delete >> Success

Create map favorite >> edit >> delete >> unsuccessful

All the map view are created by me.

Thank you

Hi Dipali,

are you able to reproduce on the demo?

Could you try upgrading to DHIS 2.22 and see if that solves it?

Could you please share output from the tomcat log from when this happens?

regards,

Lars

I want users to auto load coordinates when capturing data on location using tablets. Anyone know if there is suitable app or set up to achieve this?

Hi Simon,

The Android Event Capture app and Android Tracker Capture app allows you to collect GPS coordinates. However, this is not automatically, the users needs to manually press the ‘coordinate button’ and then the Android system fetches your GPS coordinates.

I second the request!

Our users would also like that ability for the Android Event Capture and Tracker Capture Apps (perhaps a configuration setting we can specify?) to allow the auto-capture of GPS coordinates.

Why would that be necessary if when capturing data a user can simply press a button to get co-ordinates?

Hi all,

I support the idea of a GPS stamp in Event & Tracker capture, as it’s 1) a way to assure quality of data, and 2) it minimizes effort on the person collecting data.

A program setting would be great. I can imagine that in some cases we’d want both the automatic GPS coordinates AND user-initiated coordinates, but for now I’d be very happy with either one or the other, not necessarily both.

So that’s a +1 from the PSI end.

Hi All,

I see a number of implementation demanding automatics capture of coordinates without the entrant’s pressing the capture button to basically ensure data is collected at the right place especially in surveys.

Further to this request is; would you want coordinated captured for every field/datalements? because it also likely that if someone wants to cheat he/she will capture a few variables at the right location and move on and complete else where.

Thinks of the data - coordnates per field and the battery use??

Hi Ranga,

I can think of a multitude of reasons, here’s a couple:

  • In large campaigns (e.g. Polio campaigns) where a large mobile workforce are asked to go out to specific locations (villages, streets, homes), you want to MAKE SURE that you’re not being ‘gamed’ … so an automated unalterable location capture on a simple anonymous event survey form, fulfils that monitoring purpose
  • In conflict areas, you might want to set up (we may be looking at this) a simple self-contained polling app that auto-captures GPS coordinates every 30 minutes or so
  • Just to save time for busy users who have queues of patients
  • ….
    I would also ask this functionality (a configuration option) to auto-capture reporting date/time as well! In one of our scenarios … data is only ever entered ‘live’ - so being able to capture both of these fields automatically saves time.

Cheers

David

Seem I just waded into a storm. Notwithstanding, I stand unconvinced about the necessity of such a feature. I do not think the aim was ever to track healthworker locations. It was to track disease incidents. I do not think anyone can provide evidence that such a feature has improved health work. Knowing where someone is at a point in time is definitely distinct from ensuring a service is provided adequately. I think there are better ways.

Moreover, it has privacy implications, and obviously, people would need to be informed they are being tracked. I don’t like it and think it should require the explicit action of the user.

Having said all of that, we have also implemented the “Coordinate” data value type, which is also meant to be able to allow recording of coordinate data in aggregate data sets (possibly tracker as well) which might be a distinct coordinate from the one of the event. I do not think it has been implemented as a feature in any of the clients at the moment, but it has been a requested feature to do this from some people.

Jason
