Validation rules not working

Hi all,

I am using dhis2 (2.18, I have created validation rules and they seem to not working as whatever value I put to some data elements that I am comparing on this validation, it always passing successfully. Has anyone experienced this before?

Kind regards

Hi Joao,

did you make sure that the period type of the validation rules are the same as the period type of your data set?

regards,

Lars

Okay. Make sure that:

  • All data elements of the validation rule are part of the form / data set.

  • Make sure that all data elements in the validation rule actually have a value in the form. You can control behavior for missing values in the edit validation rule > expression screen:

Hi Lars,

I´ve tried to take a double check and seems everything described below to be okay, but unfortunately still not working, maybe there is something else wrong, I will try to figure it out.

Cheers,

João

Hi Joao,

I know it’s almost a decade now, but I happen to find myself in this same predicament. Did you by any chance manage to sort this out? I have just one specific form whose validations just pass even with wrong data.

Hi @Nabel_Wambulwa

Welcome to the community!

Could you provide step by step instructions on how to reproduce this issue in any of the play.dhis2.org instances?

Thanks!
