Dear Seth,

Thank you for your message. Why did you choose not to re-use the same option set in your tracker then? (microscopy, pregnancy, HIV...).

Best,

Lise.

Hi Lise,

It is possible to re-use the same option set for several data elements,  for example you can have option-set called "Test Result"  with these options: "positive,Negative, Not applicable"..this can be applied to different data elements like ""Pregnancy test","HIV Test" so that they both pick the same option-set.



Kind Regards

Dear Markus and Prosper,

Thank you for your help!

So if I understand correctly, I have to create different options (with different UID and codes) but I can reuse the same option name?

Thank you!

Lise.

Dear Lise

We don't have uniqueness in options across different option sets. So it's possible to use same options names in different options sets.

Dear all,

Sorry for this basic question but I prefer to ask for confirmation.

Can we use the same option in different option sets (for example positive/negative in different option Sets) and the same option sets in different dataelements (for example the option sets results for different tests)?

Thanks!

Lise.
