Dear Châu Thu Trân,

Thank you for your nice notes.
How do I know whether I am using the tracker module or the aggregate module?


·        We do not get a checkbox when we use the yes-only type.
We have installed Version: 2.11; Build revision: 10429; Build date: 2013-04-02 15:51
Custom form.

·        How can the users see the options before typing? Is there a key combination to see the options or to get a search thing?
Is there a validation when someone enters a value that does not exist?

·        We saw that we can create check boxes, select boxes. Are those unbound fields? How would you use them? How can you bind one of those fields with a dataelement?

Thanks for everyone's answers!!!

Liliana

Dear all,

Tracker module support all types of data elements

- Number and Date data elements are displayed as a text field.

- For Text data element, we have two sub-type for it. First type is a Text. Data elements with this type will display as a text field in entry form. For Text data elements with sub-type as Long-text, it will displayed as a textarea.

- Yes/No data elements are displayed as a combobox with 3 options : null value (  please select ), yes and no value.

- Yes Only data elements are displayed as a checkbox and just save yes( true ) value if it's checked. No have false value.

- Username data elements are displayed as an autocompleted field. End-users can search / list all usernames of user who available in system and select an username they want.

- Option set data elements are display as an autocompleted field. And users can search and select and option-value into option-set which are defined.

Please find out a attachment file to get the snapshot.

..................


For aggregate module, in data set, we just support Date, Number, Text and Yes/No. They will be displayed like I presented above. For data elements with other types, they will displayed as text fields, no checkbox ( yes-only ), no auto-completed field ( username and optionset ). And we have a plan to support Yes Only data element for 2.12.


Best regards,

Hi Liliana. In the current version (2.11) 'Yes only' doesn't render as a checkbox.
There is a blueprint to include this on the next release, 2.12

Hi there,

We are trying to build a custom data entry form for case-based data (for a single-event without registration program).
We encounter some issues, we tried to look for the answers in the existing DHIS2.org documentation but the information we found is not detailed enough.

We are trying to find documentation that explains the behavior in the custom data entry form depending on the data element's data type selected.
Yes only (will this be a checkbox in the form?); text with set option (should this display a select box?)

Looking forward to any documentation that can help us!

Thanks,
Liliana and Johannes
