Re: Store external spreadheet-like data in DHIS2
If however you want to use the analytical output and visualization in
DHIS2, there is now an app available that allows you to map the spreadsheet
to data elements, periods and orgunits in DHIS2 - in other words, there is
a way to import from Excel provided it the structure is relatively
straightforward and mappable. But you will first have to make sure all the
metadata is in DHIS2 or if not, create them.
