Hi Randy,

this might be caused by a web server cache, ie. nginx/apache caching
content on the server. In that case it does not help to refresh the browser
cache.

These changes to your report will become available tomorrow morning.
Caching for anlaytics/reports is controlled under system settings ->
general -> cache strategy (assuming this is set to "6 am next morning").


When developing reports this can be a bit inconvenient. This is a weakness
with ireport and developing reports directly on the production server in
general.

Some "fixes":

- Disable server side caching.
- Disable caching in dhis.
- Refresh cache on the server on demand.

All of these are bad in the sense that it will make end-users wait longer
for reports and the server to get increased load.

cheers

Lars
