Re: [Dhis2-users] Problem selecting all districts in orgunit hierarchy in pivot table module
Strange. Seems to work in the latest 2.12 at least. Please check if you can reproduce it here: http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html . I recommend upgrading to the latest 2.12 anyway as it lets you select orgunits by boundaries/level in PT. I guess others can provide better use cases than I can, but one nice thing about having different kind of groups as dimensions is that if you 1) put them as the first dimension on Row, 2) put corresponding data elements/orgunits/etc as the second dimension on Row and 3) check hide empty rows in options, you will get nice grouping with subtotals like in Excel.

Re: [Dhis2-users] Problem selecting all districts in orgunit hierarchy in pivot table module
Hi Randy, There are actually quite a few use cases for aggregation along data element groups. But this of course depends on how you design data elements, categories, and groups, especially how much you have used categories. Sometimes there are dimensions to the data elements that you want to add after data entry (shared characteristics across certain data elements) and then groups can be very useful for doing aggregations along these. Here's an example of how you can use data element groups for aggregation: http://tracker.dhis2.org/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=WCO0fV45zdv (same login as with the online demo) - you'll see that the Data dimension is not used at all in this pivot table, but instead data is aggregated and visualised by groups. I also find it useful to have groups in pivot tables for ordering purpose, to e.g. list all Child Health data element on rows, but sorted by their groups (sub-programs like Immunisation and Nutrition), like this example: http://tracker.dhis2.org/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=SflhID5ZObb (If you open Options you'll notice that I have used the option hide empty rows).

Re: [Dhis2-users] Problem selecting all districts in orgunit hierarchy in pivot table module
Hi Lars, It seems to work in Mozilla, but not in Chrome, so I'll go back to that browser again. Also thanks for explaining the use of dataelement group sets. We are clearly not using them that way... and should probably work out the naming conventions if we wanted to. Seems like a good idea.

This has something to do with the version of Chrome or Mozilla you are using, Since they keep automatically updating with Chrome Version 29.0.1547.57 m And Mozilla latest version the scrolling is fine On Thu, Aug 29, 2013 at 1:30 PM, Ola Hodne Titlestad ol...@ifi.uio.nowrote: Hi Randy, There are actually quite a few use cases for aggregation along data element groups.
