That's a great work.

Hi all,


DHIS 2 version 2.17 is out. We have a wide range of features and improvements 
for you. The main focus of this release has been performance, analytics, data 
exchange and interoperability.




Better performance and scalability: Several parts of the system work faster and 
smoother, including loading of the organisation unit tree, loading of meta-data 
in data entry, import and export of data and generation of resource tables. 
Data entry meta-data now respects the offline hierarchy level setting, making 
it possible to handle very large org unit trees and number of data sets.


Demo




Option codes: Options in option sets now have codes as well as names, where the 
code cannot be changed. This implies that options are more robust, since the 
name of the option can be changed and translated into multiple languages 
without affecting existing data or attribute values. All apps will display the 
option name in the user interface and use the option code for fetching data 
from the system. In the list of option sets, click "option management" to view 
options:


Demo | Demo




Average aggregation operator: Analytics now support an average aggregation 
operator where data will averaged in both the time period and organisation unit 
dimensions. The current average operator has been renamed to "Average (sum in 
org unit hierarchy)" to better reflect what it is actually doing.


Screenshot





Long text: The system support long text data values and comments. A data value 
can now store up to 60'000 characters, which is the equivalent of 12 pages of 
text. This makes the system suitable as a text repository. This is useful e.g. 
for using to system to store narratives linked to data elements and 
organisation units. See form "Mortality < 5 Narratives" on demo:


Demo | Screenshot




Text in analytics: The analytics engine now support text. This means that you 
can produce pivot tables and standard reports with textual content. This is 
useful e.g. to present narratives next to data element values in the same 
report.


Demo




Browser support notification: The front page now shows a notification for 
people using a browser which is not supported by DHIS 2. From version 2.17, 
Internet Explorer versions 6, 7 and 8 are no longer supported.


Screenshot




Apps as start page: External apps can now be set as start page from settings > 
appearance > start page.


Demo




Display name in analysis apps: A new user setting lets you define whether to 
use the name or the short name of meta-data items in all analysis apps, both 
aggregate and event-based. As an example, it lets you define whether to display 
the full name or short name of data elements in the pivot table app. You can 
access user settings from Profile > Settings:


Demo




Simpler event analysis UI: The selection of data items in event reports and 
event visualizer has become simpler to use. You can now easily select and 
remove items from dynamic drop-downs.


Demo




Event analysis option ordering: The order of options in option sets are now 
respected in event-based pivot tables and charts.


Demo



Visualizer meter charts: The visualizer app supports meter charts, using 
background-color from the assigned legend set of the indicator.


Demo




Visualizer sorting: Sorting of categories in charts is supported in visualizer. 
It lets you sort high-to-low and low-to-high based on the data value of the 
first chart series.


Demo




Total options: Pivot table and event reports now have separate options for 
including column totals/sub-totals and row totals/sub-totals. Look for "Show 
column totals" and more under table options.


Demo | Screenshot




Pivot table dimension labels: The pivot table app displays the name of the data 
dimension as a label in the top left corner. This can be controlled through the 
option called  "Hide dimension labels" under table options.


Demo | Screenshot




Data entry future periods: When a data set is set to allow future dates, you 
can now select any year in the future in data entry. Have a look at the 
"Mortality < 5 years" form on the demo:


Demo




Indicators in section forms: In section based forms in data entry you can now 
include indicators, which will be automatically calculated in the same way as 
for custom forms. Have a look at the "Reproductive health" form:


Demo | Screenshot





Message multi-select: The message inbox support multi-select of messages with 
accompanying operations for marking messages as read, marking as unread and 
removal.


Demo | Screenshot




Missing value validation strategy: An option is added for defining the strategy 
for when a validation rule should be ignored during validation related to 
missing data values. The strategies for ignoring rules are a) never b) when any 
value is missing for the expression and c) when all values are missing for an 
expression. 


Demo | Screenshot




CSV event exchange: Events can be exported and imported using CSV format. This 
is particularly convenient for import as it allows third-party applications to 
send events to DHIS 2 in an easily understood format. Look under import-export 
app > "event import" and "event export", then select "CSV" in the format 
drop-down.


Docs | Demo | Screenshot




Dashboard exchange: Dashboards can now be exported and imported, both through 
the user interface and through the Web API.


Demo | Screenshot



Identifier schemes for export: Data export supports identifier schemes for name 
and code. The identifier scheme for data elements, organisation units and 
categories can be set independently. This makes it possible to export data 
records using codes or UIDs, allowing for a third-party system to be 
authoritative on codes and also receive data from DHIS 2. In import-export > 
data export, click "more options" at the bottom of the screen:


Demo | Screenshot



Category option combo codes: You can now define codes for category option 
combos through the user interface in the "data elements and indicators" app. 
When combined with the identifier schemes for export, this means that you can 
let third-party systems be authoritative on "disaggregations" and exchange 
option combos using codes.


Demo



Data exchange and deletion: Data will now be deleted on import if the data 
value being exchanged is empty or null. Data import now also handles duplicates 
properly.




Meta-data import access control: User role authorities are now respected in the 
meta-data importer. As ax example, a person can only import data elements 
through the meta-data import if she is granted the privilege for creating data 
elements. Previously the system had an all-or-nothing authority for meta-data 
import. 




Tracker program summary report: Report that allows you to view a summary of all 
enrollments for a program and view information for each stage in the program.


Demo | Screenshot




Tracker program statistics report: Report which provides information about 
active vs completed enrollments and timeliness in terms of overdue, on-time, 
active and completed events per program.


Demo | Screenshot




Tracker upcoming events report: Report that provides an overview of future 
scheduled events for a program, including name, organisation unit stage and due 
date. This is useful e.g. for community workers in need of schedule.


Demo | Screenshot




Tracker overdue event report: Report that gives you an overview of events that 
have passed their due date, including name, organisation unit stage and due 
date. This is useful e.g. for health workers in order to follow up on persons 
that have not come to a clinic for a scheduled checkup.


Demo | Screenshot




Follow-up analysis by org unit: The data follow-up analysis in data quality app 
now lists data values by organisation unit, making it possible for lower-level 
managers to follow up on data issues. 


Demo | Screenshot




Security and hashing: User passwords are now hashed using BCrypt. This is a far 
superior algorithm compared the previously used MD5, which is now considered 
insecure. Bcrypt can also be configured to be more expensive to compute which 
provides better protection against brute-force attack going forward.




Configurable no of cores for database servers: The number of CPU cores of your 
database server can be configured as a system setting. This allows the system 
to perform optimally when the database is hosted on a different server than the 
application server, as the analytics engine scales linearly on the number of 
available cores. Look for system setttings app > general settings > "Number of 
database server CPUs". 


Demo




System notifications: A system setting for a system email address has been 
added. Notifications about failures in processes such as analytics table 
generation will be sent here. This is useful for application monitoring. Look 
for system setttings app > general settings > "System notifications email 
address". 


Demo




Custom forms scripting: The system now provides a rich set of callback methods 
for scripting in custom forms. This makes it possible to create scripts that 
react on user loading a form, saving a value, clicking complete and so on. Have 
a look at the "EPI stock form" on demo:


Demo | Documentation




Calendar: All analysis and tracker apps now support all seven calendars in the 
new calendar solution in DHIS 2, including Nepali.



Screenshot




- Web API Features -




GeoJSON support: The organisation unit resource now supports GeoJSON meaning 
you can easily export geographical information. GeoJSON is a format for 
encoding a variety of geographic data structures.


Docs




User invites: You can now crate a batch of invitations through the invite 
resource. This is feasible for creating scripts for bootstrapping a system by 
inviting a large number of users. 


Docs




CSV data exchange: Data import and export using CSV is fully supported in the 
Web API.


Docs




Completeness: Complete data set registrations can now be exchanged in the Web 
API.


Docs




Collections modifications: A new resource has been added for adding and 
removing items of collections inside objects without having to submit the 
entire object. As an example, you can easily add a data element to a data 
element group just by sending the identifiers of the data element group and and 
the data element you would like to add.


Docs

Field filtering: A new "persisted" preset for getting persisted properties only 
has been added to the field filter, as well as an "owner" preset for getting 
assocations owned by the object.


Docs




User import: The user resource supports import of multiple users with passwords.




Caching: The Web API supports shallow E-tags, which adds validation caching 
reduces the need for transferring data over the network.




- Technical improvements -




GIS: GIS is rewritten to become a true web app. A new client side translation 
solution makes load-time faster.


Sharing: The DHIS 2 store layer is rewritten to respect sharing directly in 
queries, leading to a faster and more secure system.


Calendar support: The flexible calendar solution is now implemented 
consistently in all analysis, event and tracker apps.
