Hello Markus,

Thank you for the list and explanation; is there any expected timeline for 
that? (JIRA issue, I can track?)



With regards to the number of decimals, even if set to zero at the program 
indicator and after running the analytics, the “pivot table” still shows the 
digits.



Regarding the expression, yes it is true, I’m rounding the constants, because I 
am actually creating a budget report and applying a discount rate on the 
individual cost of a specific PHCC activity and aggregating them using sum (so 
I am using one constant per cost of a PHCC activity and another for discount 
rate of all activities). I ended up using exact values in the constant instead 
of a discounted factor; after all, changing a discount factor is easier than 
changing 200 values individually when the discount rate changes. The reason for 
all this, is that with a discounted factor there is a need to round the values 
and disallow them to be cumulated in the sum of the aggregation in order to 
keep the report error free.

Hope the above explains my usecase: aggregating the data elements of a TEI and 
multiplying them by a cost constant and a discount factor. And yes the round 
functions in this case would be very beneficial.



Thank you again for your support.



All the best,

Bernard

Program indicator expressions



Hi there Bernard,

We aim to support more and hopefully all the program rule functions in program 
indicators.

Unfortunately we are not there yet, and the list of supported functions in 
program indicators can be found here:

19.4.5. Reference information: Functions, variables and operators to use in 
program indicator expressions and filters 
<https://docs.dhis2.org/master/en/user/html/dhis2_user_manual_en_full.html#program_indicator_functions_variables_operators>



Where did you get the wrong number of decimals? In the Pivot or in the 
Tracker/Event capture?



One question on your expression below, it seems you are trying to round off a 
constant from your defined constant values? Your use case I would have guessed 
is to round off a data element or tracked entity attribute value?



Best regards

Markus

I found a similar issue on JIRA ( <https://jira.dhis2.org/browse/DHIS2-2734> 
https://jira.dhis2.org/browse/DHIS2-2734)



But still doesn’t explain why I can’t use different expressions in program 
indicators :(



All the best,

Bernard

Subject: [Dhis2-users] Using program rule expressions in Program indicator 
expressions



Can anyone tell me why I can’t use program rule expressions in Program 
indicator expressions?

Functions like ceil, floor, round and others are very useful.



Also I tried to use the “Decimals in data output” in the program indicator 
details, it didn’t work.

Also I tried to simulate the round function using conditional modulo 
subtraction/addition (the pivot table keeps trying to load) :

C{eB6eQXKY8HA}*C{xGZ2I9aTeXX} -(C{eB6eQXKY8HA}*C{xGZ2I9aTeXX}*100) % 100 + 
d2:condition('(C{eB6eQXKY8HA}*C{xGZ2I9aTeXX}*100) % 100 >=50',1,0)



Thank you in advance.

Please advise.



All the best,

Bernard
