Once you have your indicators in order as shown here

Creating a Simple Indicator in DHIS2 v43 | DHIS2 Metadata Series

In my recent post on why indicators matter in DHIS2… I discussed how collecting large volumes of data without meaningful analysis can increase reporting burden and ultimately affect data quality and use. To build on that discussion, I created a short practical demo showing how to create a simple indicator in DHIS2 version 43 in under 60 seconds. In this example, I create a “Core Clinical Staff” indicator using selected staff categories to demonstrate how indicators can help transform indivi…

It would be important to start working on our form. To do that, you need to create a dataset. In this video, explain what datasets are in DHIS2 and how they support the aggregate data collection process.

The video uses a simple analogy based on mathematical sets to make the concept easier for beginners to understand.

I hope this may be useful for anyone new to DHIS2 or supporting onboarding and training activities.

I would love to hear how you are approaching the creation of datasets in your implementation. Please feel free to comment below.
