The two forms are attached; the first is in DHIS form generator without totals, the second is from their current system. I take it from your answer that we can't display calculated data elements in read-only mode.
Some miscellaneous questions: 1. Is there a way of developing forms and reports on one machine and transferring them to another? 2. What is the status of individual patient entry? Could there be a combo data type that displayed a list of category combo values in a combo box? I couldn't quite tell from the Case Aggregation Mapping form what was going on. Is there a roadmap or tickets to follow to see where this is going? 3. As I understand it, at this time text fields don't roll up. Could they roll up as counts (null v. populated)? How about yes/no fields, do they roll up as counts of yes? Think of 2 questions like "Did x occur? If yes, how much y was involved?" What you'd like to roll up is sum/average of y for x=yes, could be done with SQL if y=0 can be distinguished from y=null, but safer to do sum(y) where x=true for sum, sum(y)/count(x=true) for average. [In my case, x=had a stockout of 1 week or more, y=days of stockout.] Thanks, Roger -----Original Message----- From: Ola Hodne Titlestad [mailto:olati...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, September 03, 2010 2:22 AM To: Friedman, Roger (CDC/CGH/DGHA) (CTR); DHIS 2 developers; dhis2-us...@lists.launchpad.net Subject: Re: [Dhis2-users] Calculated elements and reuse of elements Hi Roger, any chance you could share these form layouts with us? The quick answer is that your totals can be retrieved using the dimension report tables and you can set up standard reports on top of that for your totals form. If you decide to key in the totals directly in addition to the breakdowns you need to use separate data elements for that. Then you can use validation rules to compare the two sets. More later.
