Re: Using age-type attributes in program indicator calculations
Hi Sale
Create a data element ie. age in year
Assign to stage.
Create a program rule variable with age/DoB attribute as any name ie. DOB
Create program rule to assign value to newly created data element
The calculation should be d2:yearsBetween(DoB, event_date)
