[Bug 1335677] [NEW] DHIS2.16 option set list not validating data entry

 

Public bug reported:

I am not entirely sure if this is by design but if you have an option
set list the user should not be allowed to enter values not in the list.
>From my recollection, this used to be the case.

With 2.16, you can enter values outside the option set list. Is this
intended or is there another criteria which must be selected to limit
the possible entries the list?

I replicated this on the SNAPSHOT demo site:

1) Go to Data Entry

2) Select Org unit and Facility Assessment Data Set

3) Select Period

4) In the Equipment Section, enter 20 for the data element: Glucometer
is present. The option set list is 1 - 5.

5) It seems counterintuitive to be able to enter any value where you
have defined a range of values for a data element.

Best regards,
