[Bug 1247890] [NEW] New field type required to ensure the format of the data

 

Public bug reported:

There doesn’t seem to be a way to check the structure of each field
beyond field type (number, text, date). For example, ensuring ANC number
is formatted as ###/##/## or is a particular length. Validation rule
does not allow users to create an expression which checks if the input
is well-formed or has a particular format-type.

DHIS Live Version: 2.11
