Thank you Knut.
The reason why i asked this was because when i tried to test the new version, i
realized that the relationships in tracker had disappeared/broken. I am going
to reset it up on my testing server just to make sure that it was not from the
database restoration process and get back to you.
Thanks.

Dear Lars,
Thank you for the hard work and effort you have invested in this project. One
quick question! Is there an upgrade script from v2.26 to v2.27? This is not
indicated in the upgrade notes.
Thank you.

Hi all,
DHIS version 2.27 is out with many new features, apps and improvements. Log in
with admin/district on the demo system.
ANALYTICS FEATURES--- Period and organisation unit drill-down: The Pivot Table
app now supports drill-down (and up) for periods and organisation unit. This
means that you can, for example, drill down from yearly periods to quarters,
months and weeks inside the pivot table. You can also drill down from the
global organisation unit to countries, provinces and facilities. Demo |
Screenshot 1 | 2 | Docs Organisation unit levels as columns: When downloading
a pivot table with organisation units as rows and the “Show hierarchy” option
enabled in the options dialog, each organisation unit level is rendered as a
separate column. This is useful for example when you create Excel pivot tables
on a local computer. Demo 1 | 2 | Screenshot | Docs Hide empty columns: The
Pivot Table app now lets you hide empty columns in the table. You enable this
in the Table options dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Legend by data element:
In the Pivot Table app, you can now color the table cells according to each
data element or indicator individually. You enable this in the Table options
dialog by setting legend to “By data item”. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Row and
column % in pivots tables: In the Pivot Table app you can now display values as
percentages of row total or percentage of column total (instead of the
aggregated value). This is useful in order to see the contribution of data
elements, categories and organisation units to the total value. You enable this
in Table options dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs 100% stacked column charts:
In the Data Visualizer app you can now display 100% stacked column charts. You
enable this in the Chart options dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Cumulative
values in line charts: In the Data Visualizer app you can now create line
charts with cumulative values. You enable this in the Chart options dialog.
Demo | Screenshot | Docs Chart title handling: In the Data Visualizer app you
can now control the chart title and subtitle, in terms of hiding or displaying
the as well as specifying custom titles. You enable this in the Chart options
dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Hide missing values handling: The Data
Visualizer app now offers better control over hiding of missing values. You can
choose between “Before first value”, “After last value” and “Before first and
after last value”. This is useful for example when creating column and bar
charts. You enable this in the Chart options dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs
EPI weeks: The system now supports various weekly period types, with Monday,
Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday as the first day of the week. Data can
be collected through data sets configured to use the desired weekly period
type. The analytics engine will attribute weekly data to the month which
contains four days or more of the week. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Group set
flexibility: Data element groups and organisation unit groups can now be be
part of any number of group sets. This allows for increased flexibility in
analysis. This change also allows for persisting the “All items” checkbox as
part of favorites in analytics apps. Demo | Screenshot | Docs org unit group
set | Docs data element group set Attribute option combos in indicators: You
can now specify data elements together with attribute option combinations in
indicator expressions. This is useful e.g. to compare targets vs results, or
the performance of various programs in indicator calculations. UI support is
not yet there, attribute option combos can be entered directly in the
expression, see the docs. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Reporting rates in
indicators: Indicator now allows for specifying reporting rates and actual
reports in expressions. This is useful e.g. to adjust for data completeness in
performance indicators. UI support is not yet there, reporting rates can be
entered directly in the expression, see the docs. Demo 1 | 2 | Screenshot |
Docs Favorites and interpretations in event analytics apps: The new,
file-based favorite solution has been introduced in the Event Reports and Event
Visualizer apps, similar to the solution in for example the Pivot Table app.
This means that you can now also create and share interpretations for event
reports and event charts. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Event Visualizer app | Docs
Event Reports app Program category dimensions in event analytics apps: The
Event Reports and Event Visualizer apps let you use program categories and
category option group sets as dimensions for tables and charts. This applies
for programs with category combinations. Demo 1 | 2 | Screenshot | Docs Event
Visualizer app | Docs Event Reports app Multiple legend sets per data element:
In Event reports and Event Visualizer apps you can aggregate events by multiple
legend sets per data element. This becomes useful e.g. with age groups. You can
collect age in years as part of an event and then aggregate into various age
groups, i.e. by 10 year intervals or 15 year intervals. This way, data can be
collected once and later used to satisfy multiple reporting needs. Demo 1 | 2 |
Screenshot 1 | 2 | Docs Program and event status: You can now filter data by
program status and event status in the Event Reports and Event Visualizer apps.
You can set these filters from the options dialog. Demo | Screenshot | Docs
Event Visualizer app | Docs Event Reports app Program stage count in
indicators: Program indicators support a variable for counting the number of
events for a program stage. Screenshot | Docs Most viewed favorites: Event
reports and event visualizer provides links to your most popular favorites on
the start page. Demo | Screenshot TRACKER FEATURES--- Program rule
improvements: A completely new user interface for managing program rules has
been introduced in the Maintenance app. A range of new program rule actions is
now supported in the new user interface:
- Assign value. Enables client side calculations.
- Display text. Enables the web client to display text in the indicator or
feedback widgets.
- Display key/value pair. Enables the web client to display a information
box with a title and value in either the indicator or feedback widgets.
- Make field mandatory. Enables program rules to turn a field mandatory
based on rule expression.
Other improvements include the ability to delete and change program rule
variables(source fields), and the ability to include one data element in
several program rule variables. For all warning and error messages it will now
be possible to include a dynamic/calculated part at the end of the static error
message. Demo | Screenshot setup | Rule expression | Rule action | Tracker
capture | Docs Event programs in Maintenance app: The Maintenance app now
supports management of event programs. This includes new UI for creating event
programs, organisation unit assignment, sections, custom forms and
notifications. The create program screen is designed as wizard where the
program can be configured across several steps. Tracker type programs is still
located in the old Programs/Attributes app. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Program
indicators in Maintenance app: Program indicators can now be managed in the
Maintenance app. The new UI lets you create indicators across three steps and
provides a simpler way of creating expressions and filters. Demo | Screenshot |
Docs Person search order: In the Tracker Capture app, you can now sort the
list of tracked entity instances by each column in the search. Demo |
Screenshot GENERAL FEATURES--- Sharing dialog: A new dialog for sharing of
metadata is now available in the Maintenance app, offering a better and simpler
user experience. Demo | Screenshot | Docs Notification modes: Validation rule
notifications can now be sent as individual messages or as message summaries.
This is useful e.g. when you want to send individual messages for high-priority
disease outbreaks, and summaries for low-priority routine data validation
errors. Demo | Docs Sliding windows in validation: Validation rules can now
calculate data based on sliding time windows. This implies that data is
evaluated not just for fixed periods, such as weeks, but also for sliding
intervals of the same duration, e.g. Wednesday to Thursday. Demo | Docs
Improved password security: The system now provides greater security and
control over passwords. This can be enabled under System Settings > Access. -
Email notifications can be sent out to users 14 days before their password
expires and must be changed. - The minimum number of characters in passwords is
configurable and can be between 8 and 14.- Password must contain a mix of at
least three characters from the following categories: uppercase, lowercase,
numeric and special (non-alphanumeric).- When changing passwords, users cannot
use any of the 24 previously used passwords. Screenshot | Docs Users app | Docs
System Settings app Cloud storage for resources: Resource (files and links,
found in the Reports app > Resources) can now be configured and be backed by a
cloud storage provider such as AWS S3. This allows for infinite storage of
files. This requires that you’ve configures a cloud store in dhis.conf.
Note: if you’ve configured cloud storage in dhis.conf, all files you upload or
the files system generates will use cloud storage, not only resources. Demo |
Screenshot | Docs | Cloud file store setup docs Improved metadata export:
Metadata export with dependencies now supports data element groups and
dashboards. Demo | Docs Data store manager: A new app is available which lets
you manage the content of the web API data stores. This is helpful when
managing apps and external scripts. Demo | Screenshot | Docs SERVER ADMIN
FEATURES--- Memcached support: You can now use memcached as an application
cache provider. This allows for greater scalability as memcached can be hosted
on a separate server off-heap. Docs
WEB API FEATURES--- Tracker soft delete: Soft deletion has been introduced for
the tracked entity instance and enrollment entities. This gives clients with
local databases the opportunity to react on deleted entities. Docs Deleted
metadata objects log: Deletion of metadata is now logged and can be queried
from a new endpoint /api/deletedObjects. This allows clients with local
databases to react on deleted metadata objects. Docs Email sending: A new
endpoint for sending email is introduced at /api/email. Docs Min-max data
element values: A new endpoint for setting and retrieving min-max data element
values is introduced at /api/minMaxDataElements. Docs Lock exceptions: A new
endpoint which lets you create, retrieve and remove data set lock exceptions is
available at /api/lockExceptions. Docs Event export identifier schemes: The
event export resource for now supported identifier schemes, i.e. allows for use
of code as well as identifier. Docs RELEASE INFO---
