General description

This module shall support data reporting between the databases at the different levels. The reporting usually follows the organizational hierarchy where children nodes report to their parents. The data shall be transferred using the XML format.

Requirements list

• XML based import and export
• Export shall be user-defined in terms of:
  • Which data elements to export
  • The data sources (e.g. which organizational units)
  • The data periods

Proposed solution for importexport

Resources:

• DHIS 1.4 has a similar XML-based import/export functionality which is useful both for integration, business logic and GUI
• DHIS 1.3 text-based (comma-delimited TEXT files using either ASCII or Unicode character sets) import/export for integration
