Re: Using age-type attributes in program indicator calculations

 

 Hi Nayeem, this is very useful but the statement below was not very clear at least for me.  
"Later created a data element in program stage and assign age in year as a calculative value from program attribute 'age'."

Do you mind to elaborate a bit more, and which version  of DHIS2 are referring to? 
Thanks in advance
Regards

 Hi NickI have also notice the same problem. Later created a data element in program stage and assign age in year as a calculative value from program attribute 'age'.
It works!

Hi
I am trying to figure out the best method to use age-type attributes in program indicator calculations. As a simple example, let us say I want a program indicator which displays the age in years of a person. From what I can see, the age-type attribute stores its value as a date, according to the date of birth either selected or estimated based on what is entered in the years, weeks and months fields respectively during registration. If I want to use this date in a program indicator however it seems to not work correctly.
ie d2:yearsBetween(age, event_date) when used as an expressions as an example would not give me the correct age in years. Is there another way in which to make these types of program indicators work with the age-type attribute?
Thanks,Nick_______________________________________________
