Subject: Re: [Dhis2-devs] Automatically copy data from current period to new period
 


Hello Barnali,

thanks for your request. Currently we have no plans to support such a requirement. However, this should not be hard to accomplish through an external script. You could use the web api to pull out the values you need, save it, change the year of the data value set and push the values back in using curl or other http clients. Since it only happens once a year you may consider triggering the script manually.

Documentation here:

regards,

Lars
