Hi Lars,

I have been thinking about this a bit more. Isn't this already possible
actually by specifying the two quarters and then using the period dimension
as a filter?

Like below:

https://play.dhis2.org/demo/api/analytics.json?dimension=dx:fbfJHSPpUQD;Uvn6LCg7dVU&dimension=ou:ImspTQPwCqd&filter=pe:2015Q2;2015Q3&displayProperty=NAME&skipMeta=true

The ANC1 data element does what its supposed to I think, but the indicator
does not.

I would expect from this
[image: Inline image 2]

That we would get 138,518/((487,902/2)/12*6)=113.6%,

The population should be averaged and then annualized, while the numerator
should be summed.

Is this a bug then? It seems like something which should be supported
actually, as it is a fairly common use case to be able to filter over the
last X number of weeks, days, or months and calculate a coverage rate.

Regards,
Jason
