> Hi all,
>
> DHIS 2 version 2.12 is released. We have some great new features for you:
>
>
> - All analysis tools are working against the analytics Web API. This means
> that the system is no longer dependent on the resource-demanding data mart
> process and running it is now optional. You can still run data mart and use
> it for custom reports but all analysis tools now read from the analytics
> tables. These tables can be generated ad-hoc from reports module and
> scheduled in data administration module. The analytics API allows you to do
> a lot more flexible dimensional data analysis, for instance like this:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=otVrkxLmBJT
>
>
> - In data visualizer module you can now do analysis on all fixed and
> dynamic data dimensions. You can select any data dimension and items from
> the left menu. You can also use multiple dimensions as filter. In DHIS 2
> you can create dynamic data dimensions through data element group sets, org
> unit group sets and categories. For instance we can now create interesting
> charts where you compare immunization doses given at facility (fixed) and
> outreach:
>
> (Log in with admin/district)
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=LRFDsb8jcG0
>
> You can make a chart comparing ANC visits for each facility type:
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=iRCGbznvyG8
>
> A chart showing HIV testing broken down on gender:
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=mKjgsRMJt0H
>
> You can also include data element details (category option combos)
> directly under data elements by selecting "Details" as opposed to "Totals"
> in the drop down next to the list of data elements:
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=wbTNJrvfytf
>
>
> - In pivot table module we have added support for analysis on category
> based dimensions - you can now do analysis based on all fixed and dynamic
> data dimensions. All dimensions can be selected from the menu on the left.
> You can for instance create a pivot table for vaccine doses given broken
> down on age group and facility location like this:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-pivot/app/index.html?id=JsmBGbmRlEu
>
>
> - In pivot table module you can now download your pivot table to your
> local computer in Microsoft Excel, CSV and HTML format. The downloaded file
> will have the same table layout as you see on the web page. As an example,
> load a pivot table by clicking on the link below, then click on "Download"
> on the top menu, then "Microsoft Excel" under "Table layout".
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-visualizer/app/index.html?id=otVrkxLmBJT
>
> You can also use the pivot table to browse the analytics web api and use
> the download options under "Plain data source" to retrieve the data
> response.
>
>
> - Pivot table now supports data interpretations. Load a favorite, click on
> "Share" in the top menu and write your question, comment or interpretation.
> It will become visible in the data interpretation feed in the dashboard.
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-dashboard-integration/interpretation.action
>
>
> - In GIS you can now include data element details (category option combos)
> in a map. For instance you can create a map for ANC 1st visits at facility
> (fixed) like this:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-mapping/app/index.html?id=YOEGBvxjAY0
>
>
> - Single events without registration (anonymous events) are now supported
> in the Web API. This means that you can send event data from case-based
> systems like EMRs directly to DHIS 2, and create mobile clients for event
> registrations which send event data over HTTP to DHIS 2. Documentation here:
>
> http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch25s07.html
>
>
> - Data entry for single events without registration now works offline, in
> the same way as the routine data entry. This implies that you can log onto
> DHIS 2 in the morning and continue with data entry throughout the day even
> if Internet connectivity is lost or intermittent. Even large option sets
> for ICD 10 codes work offline, and performance is improved in general.
> Check it out here:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-caseentry/anonymousRegistration.action
>
>
> - In tracker you can now define program indicators, creating formulas
> based on person data elements in order to make more useful analysis:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-maintenance-patient/program.action
>
>
> - In tracker we have a new analysis function which gives completeness for
> each program and its program stages:
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-caseentry/programStageCompletenessSelect.action
>
>
> - Option sets and data elements of type yes-only are now supported in the
> routine data entry module. This will be useful for several use-cases, for
> instance when making facility assessment forms. We recommend sticking with
> numeric option sets and data elements in routine data entry since text
> cannot be aggregated. Check it out by selecting the "Facility assessment"
> form here:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-dataentry/index.action
>
>
> - Data set report and reporting rate summary now allows you to use all
> organisation unit group based dimensions as filters. For instance you can
> filter your data set report to only include data for a certain facility
> type. Click on "More options" to select the filters in data set report:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-reporting/showDataSetReportForm
>
> Same goes for reporting rate summary:
>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-reporting/displayViewDataCompletenessForm.action
>
>
> - Data entry can now be done through PDF files. This implies that data
> entry can be done completely offline and detached from DHIS 2 through the
> well-understood PDF format. You can download PDF form templates from the
> data set module by clicking on the PDF icon. Forms can later be uploaded
> through the import-export module by going to "PDF Data Import". This allows
> for workflows where forms are distributed to remote / mostly disconnected
> areas, filled and returned by email before uploaded to the central instance.

>
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-importexport/displayImportDataValueForm.action?importFormat=pdf
>
>
> - Support for "app" extensions. You can now develop stand-alone apps and
> use them as extensions to DHIS 2. The apps should be based on javascript
> and HTML and use the DHIS Web API for retrieving data. The apps must be
> packaged according to the W3 manifest for Web applications. You can upload
> the apps in the Apps service module. Documentation here:
>
> http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch27.html
>
> You can see the admin module here:
>
> http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/dhis-web-appmanager/appList.action
>
>
> - The analytics Web API resource now supports data responses with table
> layout. This means that you can generate ready-made tabular reports in
> Excel, CSV or HTML format straight from the analytics API using dynamic
> input parameters without defining anything up front. This is an example
> Excel report generated on the fly by using the tableLayout, columns and
> rows query parameters:
>

> You can read the documentation here:

>
> You can download the 2.12 release here:
>
> http://dhis2.org/downloads
>
>
> You will find documentation here:

> http://dhis2.org/documentation
>
>
> Source code is found here:
>
> https://code.launchpad.net/~dhis2-devs-core/dhis2/2.12
>
>
> The new analytics engine requires that more of your server resources are
> dedicated towards the database in favor of the Java VM. It also requires
> that you have a fast disk type. We will provide more info about this
> shortly.
>
>
> For this release we had source code contributions from PSI and Critical
> software - much appreciated. Also thanks to all developers who have worked
> very hard to finalize all this in only two months.
>
> Enjoy the new version. Feedback is appreciated.
