Re: DHER Pivot Table Issus
Hi Crizelle
Hope you don't mind but I've forwarded this message to dhis2 mailing lists
as i can't deal with it immediately and will be useful to see if others
have seen something similar.
I've looked at the excel file and the the pictures and I see the problem.
In order to know where the problem is coming in you'd want to look at the
aggregateddatavalue table in dhis2 and the resulting aggregateddatavalue
table in the .dmart file (using sqlitestudio) to check for discrepancies.
There is nothing i can think of which would cause this kind of truncation
to occur. Rounding I can certainly imagine but this seems to be very
different.
