Thanks Tlohang, yes, I’m aware that we can produce a cumulative number of x over a period, but I need to then use those numbers to compare data from another period as covered in my last mail, hence I assumed I may be able to achieve it using an indicator. Sorry that I was a bit brief in my initial mail, Regards Ed

The knows how to analyse that data element in that cumulative manner once you choose that period during analysis. I hope this helps.

E.g. I have an indicator called “Number of patients” captured monthly. I need an indicator that will give me the total number of patients for the set period October 2016 – September 2017. Thanks in advance!
