Re: [Dhis2-devs] How to change the financial year from a default (OctYYYY-SepYYYY) to another one

 

SDMX 2.1 has the concept of a REPORTING_YEAR_START_DAY.  See
http://sdmx.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/SDMX_2-1_SECTION_6_TechnicalNotes.pdf.

Thus you can have PERIOD="2010"  REPORTING_YEAR_START_DAY="--07-01"
which would indicate the year running from 01-July-2010 to 31 Aug
2011.

Not sure if this concept is useful in implementing the blueprint,
though it would certainly be useful to follow a standard.  Note the
same mechanism can be used for months, quarters, weeks etc.  So:

PERIOD="2010Q2"  REPORTING_YEAR_START_DAY="--10-01"

would indicate the second quarter in the USG financial year of 2010.
