Hello list,

I would like to rekindle the discussion around how data entry should work
both logically and practically, as the current solution is probably not yet
ideal, particularly on mobiles.

The meaning of the toggle button that alternatively is labeled "Mark as
complete" and "Mark as not complete" easily causes confusion, at least in
the mobile browser interface. I think it could make sense to
relabel it ONLY ON THE MOBILE as "Report dataset" and then remove the
button and replace it with a message on top that says "Dataset already
reported".  A supervisor can then look through the data reported in the
webapp and toggle the flag back to Not Complete if needed.

The health worker will still be able to change the data after the flag has
been set, but not reset it. Many people have confused the completeness and
locking features, which have now apparently been completely removed (?).
Also, we have to do a better job training them in the semantics and best
practice around this button.

Thoughts?

Knut
