Could you please kindly explain how this can impact my case if the > response is yes or no. Any phone that supports the java-client will also support offline data entry. Also, newer smartphones supports offline data entry in the browser (others on the dev/user list might know the exact requirements for the browser/phone). If offline support is not a requirement, you have the option of accessing DHIS2 using a mobile browser on a regular "non-smart" phone. If you require offline support, the java client or smartphone browser are the options. Using the browser rather than java-client will likely be easier to administer, but how important that is depends on how many phones will be used. > > - how much data are they supposed to enter?

Is there likely to be values for most fields every period, or will most of them be blank? If only a few values will be sent every week/month, structured SMS might be an option. > > > Thank you so much. > > Best regards. > John > > John Ojo MD, FMCPH > Accra, Ghana. > Mobile: +233 234691626 > Skype: Johnojo > Email: [email protected] > > From: Olav Poppe <[email protected]> > To: John Ojo <[email protected]> > Cc: DHIS developers <[email protected]>; dhis1-users > <[email protected]> > Sent: Tuesday, February 26, 2013 7:28 PM > Subject: Re: [Dhis2-users] DHIS2 Mobile > > Hi John, > there are quite a few options for reporting to DHIS2 using mobile phones, can > you give us a bit more information about your case: > - is this aggregate data or case-based data? > - what type of phones will be used: do the phones support java?
