Re: DHIS 2 version 2.4 released

 

Hi Lars and Team,
 
Congratulations to you all for this wonderful job. We really appreciate your continued effort at making DHIS 2 better by the day.

I would like to draw your attention to the Data Entry Form Management Module. The module seems broken in DHIS2 version 2.4.

When you click on the 'Design data entry form' button on the Dataset management screen in order to open and edit an existing customized data entry form, or to create a new customized data entry form for a dataset you have just created, you see the following:

1. The existing data entry form does not appear.
2. A re-sizable blank box titled 'Design data entry form' appears on the screen but no CKEditor controls for designing the form.

3. An empty selection box is displayed. The box is not populated with either the Data elements nor Indicators associated with the dataset


Waiting to hear from you soon.

John.

Subject: [Dhis2-users] DHIS 2 version 2.4 released

Hi all,

we have released DHIS 2 version 2.4. The news this time:

- Offline data entry: The data entry module - if opened when online -
is operational even without Internet connectivity. Data can be entered
and stored locally while being offline and uploaded to the central
server when online. This means that the online deployment strategy
will be more viable in areas with unstable Internet connectivity. The
total bandwidth usage is greatly reduced since forms no longer are
retrieved from the server for each rendering. For more info on this
feature, read the archive:

- New Symbol layer in GIS: Data can be visualized as symbols rather
than colors. The menu system has been improved to allow more space for
the map itself and to emphasize the opportunity to load maps into
separate layers to produce more advanced map views.

- Improved data mart performance: Now scalable on the number of CPU
cores providing a near-linear performance boosts as new cores are
added - for instance the processing time for our benchmark database on
a quad-core processor was reduced to close to 1/4.


- Modal dialogs: All popups in the system have been replaced by modal
dialogs - this has proved to be less confusing to inexperienced users.


- Conversations: The messaging system is now organized around
conversations, making it easy to see the full history of an
interaction between a super-user and an end-user for instance.
