"future" period as denominator data

 

Hi,

we have some population-based indicators, and have population-data for 2014 in the database. However, when we look at indicators for any month in 2014, it appears that the denominator is picked from the last finished period, i.e. 2013. When we look at 2014 as total by selecting "this year" in pivot table, the indicator is calculated correctly using 2014 population data.

A point of allowing future data to be entered should be to use this year's projected population data in indicators. Is there some setting somewhere I have missed to allow this?

An example indicator is measles coverage:
Numerator: measles vaccination given (monthly)
Denominator: population <1 (yearly)
Percentage, annualized

Regards,
Johan
