Thanks, Lars. I added one comment in the discussion thread on how it might be implemented. If I should have noted this in a different spot (whiteboard?) let me know.

Tom

Subject: Re: [Dhis2-users] Data quality checks

Hi Tom,

there has been a debate around this. In many situations you want to ignore the validation if you have missing values (HIV+ tests <= HIV tests) and in some situations not (Total deliveries >= normal + breach + cs). So we have decided to implement an option for this for the validation process for the next version (2.9).

regards, Lars

I've established a data quality check where the sum of a data element's categories cannot be less than another data element. However the check treats missing values as NULLs rather than 0s so the check passes when it should not. Is there any way to get the check to treat missing cells as 0s?



Thanks,

Tom
