Dear Jason,
Thanks for the confirmation. Based on our discussions few minutes ago; the
M&Es think this will help them to show the performances of their programs.
For example:
In a particular facility A; during the months Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May; the
cases of measles are 5, 8, 9, 0, 10...
In our dat
Hi Jason,
These explanations are helpful. As Gerald mentions it is tricky though if
you want to use the WHO DQ app to find missing values which then flags all
nulls as missing whether the complete button on the dataset has been
pressed or not. So in this scenario we have 2 options – capturing ze
Hi Elmarie,
Yes, I think that makes sense, but the bigger issue is that data entry
staff may be spending many cumulative man hours entering a whole bunch of
zeros into a form to make it appear that it is complete. This time could
perhaps be better spent on ensuring that the quality of the data (whi
Hi Gerald,
No, they will not appear unless people re-enter the data. When this setting
is used, what happens on the client side, is that even if people enter a
zero, it will never get transmitted to the server. In most cases, having
zeros simply leads to massive numbers of zeros stored in the datab

Hello Gerald,
Storing of zeros in the DHIS2 is configured during the Data Element
Creation stage. There is an option where you need to enable the Data
Element to store zero values (see attached screen shot).

Once that is done for all the Data Elements, then the Form will be able
Dear Barnabas,
Thanks for your help.
The issue now is that we had been ignoring it all this time. Now, we want
to consider it again which means we will have to enable them as a batch by
API method but I am inquiring if the previous missing zeros will appear.
