HMIS Dictionary

(08/09/2017)

The HMIS Dictionary is made to simplify user access to terminology and details associated with the data model. The application counts 4 panels:

  • DataSets
  • Search (limited to the aggregated domain as of 1.0.0)
  • Programs
  • Custom 'Dossiers' (with additional configuration)

NB: HMIS refers to Health Information Management System

Panels

  • DataSets: displays the list of sections, data elements and associated category combos
  • Search: a search tool to access directly data elements (aggregate domain) and indicators
  • Programs: displays the list of sections, data elements with optionSets, progam indicators, event reports and event charts
  • Dossiers: displays list of data sets and indicator groups by 'service'
  • Admin: configuration of the Dossiers panel and 'service' concept

Configuration

The configuration relies on the following elements that have to be defined through the Maintenance app:

  • an organisationUnitGroupSet that gather all the elements of the typology of services,
  • the typology of services itself, each one is an organisationUnitGroup with a unique code: "OUG_HSV_#CODE#", their description are stored in tranlsations (description is only available in translations as of dhis v2.25),
  • then dataSets and indicatorGroups have one attribute, repectively "DS_#CODE1##CODE2#..." and "ING#CODE2#" that permits the direct association with the typology of services (association with multiple services is allowed),
  • finally the dataElements are associated via the sections to the dataSets and the indicators are associated directly to the indicatorGroups (dataElements outside of sections would not appear).
  • in indicators the descriptions of numerators and denominators cannot be translated (as of dhis v2.25) so the key words "NUM:" and "DENOM:" (both compulsory) are used in indicators descriptions (which have a translation).

Some elements are defined at the Admin panel:

  • The uid of the organisationUnitGroupSet
  • The name of the group of user with editing right in the Dossier panel and the Admin panel too
  • dataSets and indicatorGroups can be blacklisted

Some elements are still hardcoded:
