Hi Jason, I'm not sure if indicators can do the trick as:
1. They're not usable in data entry forms for tracked data; 2. They're not usable for further indicator calculation when used in data entry forms for aggregated data. (It is not possible to use indicators in the calculation of other indicators.) Can you confirm?

In case you have not seen it, we have extensive documentation on the use of indicators here https://www.dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch13.html#indicator_maintenance It should also be possible to calculate the value from other data, not contained in the data entry form, IF it exists for the same orgunit and period.

This auto-calculated field would then be available for further reporting and indicator calculation (i.e. it is a data element calculated based on other data elements in the same entry form). Actually, if it would be possible to calculate data elements based on other data elements outside of a data form, that would be great too (but if I remember well this is currently not possible).
