Re: Illegal Data element identifier on 2 data elements in a Dataset (DHIS 2.18)

 

Dear Sam,

That's sometimes happens. I have experienced it very many times on multiple
datasets, elements, etc.

You should always check public access permission if you are not restricting
anything. The public access sometimes resets to none by itself. However, I
have not been able to replicated it by testing.
