HI all,

 

This looks exciting. 

Lars, can I ask if the reporting rates based on opening and closing dates is
also permeated to respect opening and closing dates in other features within
DHIS2 e.g. if you select a orgunitgroup as a denominator in an indicator
does it only use open facilities for the period in the calculation? If not
how do we add this?

 

Regards,

ANALYTICS FEATURES

---

 

GIS layers for elevation, population density and nighttime lights: DHIS 2
now supports map layers from  <https://earthengine.google.com/> Google Earth
Engine, which includes more than thirty years of historical imagery and
scientific datasets, updated and expanded daily. So far we support three
datasets, but more layers will be added in the months to come. You find the
Earth Engine layers in the top menu, next to the boundary layers. The
elevation layer can be used to visualise the risk of Mosquito-borne disease.
Select a color scale, minimum and maximum elevation, and the number of steps
to divide your range in. The same options are available for the population
and nighttime lights layers, which is also an indicator of where people
live.

Place search in GIS: You can now search for places and regions on the GIS
app. Click on the magnifier icon and type the name of the place. You will
get suggestions as you type. Select a place in the list to see it marked on
the map. Click the x-button in the search field to remove the marking.

Color scales for GIS thematic layers: Select among nice looking color scales
from  <http://colorbrewer.org> ColorBrewer when you visualise thematic
layers. These scales create more accurate and user friendly maps, as the
distances between colors are proportional to their perceived difference.

 

 <https://www.dhis2.org/images/224/gis-color-scales.png> Screenshot

 

Reporting rates on time: The pivot table apps lets you view reporting rates
based on timely form submissions. A timely submission must happen within a
number of days after the reporting period. This number is configurable per
data set. In the pivot table or data app, select Data > Data sets >
Reporting rates on time or Actual reports on time and then select your data
set.

Reporting rates by data set categories: Analytics now supports reporting
rates broken down by data set categories. As an example, if your data set
collects data for multiple projects modeled as data set categories, you can
view the reporting rate for individual projects. Try it out on the demo by
selecting the EPI Stock data set and the Project category.

Expected reports based on org unit opening and closed date: For reporting
rates in analytics, the number of expected reports is now calculated based
on whether the organisation units assigned to the data set were open or not
for the aggregation period. As an example, if you ask for reporting rates
for a district for June, and one of the facilities within the district was
not open until August, that facility will not be included in the number of
expected reports.

Expected reports based on category option start and end dates: For reporting
rates which involve data set categories, the number of expected reports is
now calculated based on start and end dates of the relevant category
options. In other words, complete registrations for category options are
only included if the aggregation period is within their start and end dates.

Pivot table filter title: The pivot table app now displays the items
currently selected as filters as a title on top of the table.

GENERAL FEATURES

---

 

Improved maintenance app: Data sets, metadata attributes, constants and
option sets are now supported in the Maintenance app.

Apps and object search from menu: You can now navigate directly to an object
type from the App menu. For example, search for "group set" in the top menu,
and navigate directly to the list of organisation unit group sets or
indicator group sets, without navigating first to the maintenance app.

 

 <https://www.dhis2.org/images/224/app-menu-search.png> Screenshot

 

Improved data usage statistics: The Usage Analytics app now provides reports
for the most viewed favorites by type (or example pivot table and chart) and
number of data values stored per day.

<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch27.html> Docs

 

Ticket system: You can now set priority and status for feedback messages.
This allows you to use the DHIS 2 messaging as a basic ticket system useful
for managing user support. Each message can be treated as a ticket and go
through a workflow (similar to e.g. Zendesk). You can also send internal
messages, visible only to other ticket administrators. This requires
membership to the "Feedback recipient" user group.

Metadata synchronization: Metadata synchronization enables DHIS 2 instances
to synchronize metadata with each other. Given a central and multiple remote
instances, metadata created at central can sync with the remote instances.
The remote instances will check the central instance for new, available
metadata packages/versions. This allows the implementor to roll out metadata
updates in a controlled and staged manner.

TRACKER FEATURES

---

 

Tabular data entry widget: Tracker capture has a new data entry widget that
allows for tabular-style data entry. It displays the list of program stages
as left-hand side labels. Events will be listed in table for repeatable
program stage, and allows for in-line edits of event data values. The widget
can be enabled from the tracker dashboard by going to gear icon > Show/hide
icons and selecting "Tabular data entry".

<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch25s03.html> Docs

 

Open tracker dashboard from URL: Tracker dashboards can now be opened
directly from URLs. This is useful e.g. in order for integration with other
tracker apps. Security rules are still applied.

<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch25s03.html> Docs

 

Improved program rules: There are two new types of actions for program
rules. These allow consolidated errors and warnings when events is completed
(in tracker capture) and saved/updated (in event capture). This is useful
when there is a combination of things in the form that should trigger an
error/warning, whereas each single data element might be legal in itself.
One such example is conditional mandatory fields. Check out the Antenatal
care visit program program on the demo.

<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch29.html> Docs

 

System-generated identifiers: For unique tracked entity attributes you can
now have the system automatically generate and assign numeric IDs. When
registering tracked entity instances on web, the tracker capture
registration form will automatically be populated with a number in the given
pattern. In tracker on Android, the ID generation is used to reserve a
series of IDs for each Android device. This allows offline registration of
tracked entity instances without risking duplicate IDs when syncing with the
server. Have a look at the WHO RMNCH Tracker program on the demo.

WEB API FEATURES

---

 

Improved translations solution: The database translations solution has been
completely rewritten and nows works while "traversing the object graph".
This means that you can navigate e.g. JSON documents from dataElement to
groups and still get translated a displayName. This will also fix a range of
issues where un-translated content appeared in the user interface of apps.

 

 
<http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/developer/html/ch01s06.html#d0e
601> Docs

 

Data predictors: A new solution for generating predicted values have been
introduced in the Web API. This component will be useful for generating
thresholds for disease surveillance, population growth and more. We will
provide a UI for this and more info in version 2.25.

 

 <http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/developer/html/ch01s73.html>
Docs

 

Program messages: The Web API now features a new concept for program
messages, which allows you to send messages to tracked entity instances,
emails and SMS. This can be useful e.g. in order to send reminders about
upcoming visits and notifications for awareness programs to people.
