Re: Chart comparing two time intervals

 

+1 for this - also useful for data quality-related reports.

So this is a +1 vote for adding such functionality for all sub-annual data (though the most common use cases are probably weekly, or even daily).

I remember this being possible in old DHIS->Excel pivot tables when periods were split in "month" and "year", but with the "Month year" period I don't see how it can be done in the DHIS. Is there a way to do this, and if not; can it be considered as a new feature? Not sure how it could be done, but some ad-hoc creation of time series perhaps. We can always export it or make custom report, but it seems common enough for IDSR analysis to be useful on-demand inside DHIS.
