Dear All,I have attached a screenshot showing what I had been trying to describe. Normally, the catcombo name does not show as part of the data element name in the dataset window, but in this case, it is showing up. However, in this case, this data element no longer has the catcombo associated with it. We had changed it when we were experiencing some difficulty with some of the items showing up on the form designer. However, the changes did not take effect until we had to remove this from the dataset and then add it back again.
Not sure what is causing this though...

Warm Regards,

Ifeanyi

Dear Djibril,I actually don't think the issues are different. In our own case, we renamed category options but when you get to the form designer, what is showing up is the old name. Running maintenance did not help. Running data integrity showed that the changes made to some of the category option combinations did not take effect and we had to recreate all the ones that did not take effect.However, it wasn't until we removed the data element that had the category option combo (that wasn't changing) from the dataset, and then added it back, did the changes take effect. Not sure why this is happening, but give it a try and see what happens.

Warm Regards,

Ifeanyi

Thanks Ifeanyi for the update.Our issue is a bit different here all is populating well on Data entry and people are capturing data. just that the category option combination names are not updated with the correct and we use those name in a complex completeness report script.
Test step On Sierra Leon 2.27
- I have renamed the dataelementcategoryoption "Improve access to clean water" to "IACW"
- then go to administration app > maintenance > select "Update category option combinations" and click "perform maintenance".
- then I go to category option combination under maintenance (metadata) and search for "IACW" and could not find it but when you search for "Improve access to clean water" you get many that pop in. i.e: "AIDSRelief Consortium, Improve access to clean water" which supposes to be renamed to "AIDSRelief Consortium, IACW"
- I create a sqlView that search on the categoryoptioncombo Table and I got the same result as the front end
so whenever you rename a categoryoption I believe that the category option combination name should also reflect the new name once an Update category option combinations is performed

Just an update on this.
Everything I tried initially did not work. I then went to the dataset editor window to remove the problematic data elements and once I filtered them, I found that each one of them had in parenthesis at the end of the name of the data element, the category option combo that was causing the issue. Once I removed and put it back, the issue was resolved.
I hope this helps somebody.
Thank you.

Warm Regards,

Ifeanyi

Hello Lars,This is similar to the issue I raised on this platform last week.
What I noticed is that some data elements will carry the old category option combo even after it has been changed or updated. This affects the form designer and section forms. In our own case, everything refused to update. I ran maintenance severally with no effect whatsoever.
I am posting the thread below as only one person weighed in on this:
Thread:

Hello Laura,Thank you for your response.
We are currently running the 22nd Nov (dbf5f18) build of version 2.27 which we upgraded to on Thursday, this past week but the issue is still persisting.
I have recreated the category option combination and applied it to the data element but the same issue is still persisting. When I do a metadata export from the API, the missing categories are not on the list. It is as though DHIS does not even create them for whatever reason.
I don't know if anyone can provide some insight on what we could do to fix this since upgrading did not help.
It's affecting our roll out plans.
Thank you once again.

Warm Regards,

Ifeanyi

You may want to upgrade to the latest build. We had a similar problem with 2.27 (on a build from August) and we just upgraded this very minute to the latest build 37edfc2 (Nov 8, 2017) and the problem appears fixed.

Hello All,We are encountering this issue with the form designer where either the data element does not show up in the form designer i.e. after having been assigned to a dataset, or some of the category options do not show up.

In this instance I have a data element disaggregated by testing modalities, sex, and age (age categories <1,1-4,5-9,10-14,15-19,20-24, 25-29,30-34,35-39,40-44,45-49, 50+).
The way it is showing up, a number of the age bands are missing in the form designer and it is not uniform. E.g. VCT has female 15-19, VCT is missing male 15-19.
I have run maintenance, generated resource tables, run analytics, removed the options from the category combo and put them back again, but still not showing up.
We use custom forms a lot and this is not the first time we are encountering this, but then, not to this degree.

Can anybody please help with this?
We are running DHIS2 ver 2.27 Build revision: a8283e0 Build date: 2017-09-21 06:25
Thank you.

Warm Regards,

Ifeanyi

Dear DHIS2 community, We are setting up an aggregated system using Attribute option as part of the disaggregation. Some of the category option names were not correct and we have renamed them.
Now after updating the category option combination through data administration/Maintenance, the old combination name is still appearing on the category option combinations on the frontend and at the backend.
we have renamed some attribute option on Sierra Leon Demo 2.27 and still found the same issue.
Is there anyone experiencing the same issue.
we are using version 2.27 build:5c148f4
