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

Thank you Markus!

I will report in Jira and will also suggest the improvement for future data 
entry.

Hi again Georgi.

We have this Jira issue that would probably help you show the data you want in 
the reporting module if you remodeled your data, but it is planned for a later 
release - so perhaps no good to you now: 
DHIS2-127

Lifting the restriction on registering future event dates is a possibility. The 
restriction only applies in the UI at the moment, the back-end supports future 
event dates. If you create an improvement issue for this in Jira we can discuss 
it there. If we allow it for all programs, the user should probably get a 
visual cue that the event date is in the future to minimize accidental wrong 
dates.

For your second question I honestly dont see why the periods should be within 
the same year as the enrollment. Please register this part as a bug in Jira.

Hi Markus,

I thought about it but then it will be really hard in reporting module to the 
display the data for the desired period.

Are you able to comment on the below?:

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



Current date is 2017



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.

Hi Georgi and Nick

The tracker does not allow allow event dates in the future. This restriction is 
probably there because most(all so far?) tracker use cases register actual 
events that already has happened. Knowing nothing about your usecase: Can you 
model it slightly differently, capturing the future date a data element instead 
of the event date?

Hi Georgi,

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



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.

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