Subject: Re: [Dhis2-users] Enter data for a future date in Event and Tracker 
Capture

Hi Georgi,

1. You can select "Date in future" for attributes/data elements within a 
program to enter future dates

[Inline image 1]

I need program stage date/Event reporting date to be future dates. You know how 
in Data Entry app you can allow for entering data in the future, so from the 
period drop-down you can select to enter data for 2018 for example, regardless 
that it is 2017 now. I need the same for Events and Tracker capture stages.


2. Does the use of program indicators not solve this issue? You could select 
those months as the period of interest during analysis.

The problem here is that the program indicators do not calculate properly. Let 
me give you an example. My period is May, 1 2016 – April, 30 2017 (this is 
Fiscal year 2017). I have been entering data for one Tracker program from May,1 
to April, 30 daily. I have built a program indicator of interest. When I go to 
reporting I want to see ONE number, which is the sum/average/other calculation 
of all months from May 2016 to April 2017. So, I select all these months and 
put them in the reporting filter (I do not want them in dimension). The 
reporting module fails to calculate the data properly for these months, because 
they are in two different years.
This problem is related to other malfunction in tracker:


When selecting monthly, six-monthly, yearly period for repeatable program 
stages you can't create a stage for a year different than the year of 
enrollment.



Example



Program stage is six-monthly

Enrollment date is in 2015



[Machine generated alternative text: Enrollment  Enrolling organisation unit  
Enrollment Date  CS Bebedja  2015-02-01  2015-02-01  Incident Date  Complete  
Cancel]



Current date is 2017



[Machine generated alternative text: 1254 PM]



DHIS2 does not allow to create a six-monthly stages for 2016. Note how the 
arrow used to go to next period (2016) is inactive. The only possible options 
are the two six-monthly periods in 2015. 2014 is not active either.

Hello DHIS2 users and devs!

I have two questions:

1)      Is there a way to enter data for a future date in Event and Tracker 
capture? The latest date that could be selected in these two apps at data entry 
is the current date.



2)      Has someone worked with project periods that are outside of the 
available periods in DHIS2? I have a client that uses Fiscal Year May, 1 – 
April, 30 and this is causing a real trouble at data entry as well as reporting.

For example, the period from May, 1 2015 – April, 30 2016 is defined as Fiscal 
Year 2016. Data is entered daily in Event and Tracker Capture. How do we enter 
data so that we fall under this specific reporting period and how do we report 
an aggregate number for the entire 2016 Fiscal Year?

[Not to mention that TRACKER DOES NOT correctly aggregate reports when 
selecting two different years and setting them as report filter in the reports 
layout, which is an option to display one aggregate number for 2 years.]



Your input is highly appreciated and awaited!

Thanks,

Georgi
