DHIS zeros and saving data?

 

Hi,
We just started data entry and things are going well and they like the data
entry.
I just have a few questions.

Zeros:
- All of the data items are set to "Don't store zeros".... what does that
mean?
When totaling, aggregating, averaging, etc.  will these data fields be
counted as zeros?

Related.. on data entry I have them skipping over zero fields leaving them
blank... I assume this will be assumed to be a zero?

Also,  there doesn't seem to be an explicit "SAVE FORM" but the data does
appear to be saved (even though the User General Settings does NOT have the
"Auto-save data entry form" box checked).  How does this work?

Thanks for this great software!
