16. Data Entry Event Capture
- Learn how to enter data into Event Capture in DHIS2.
Here, you will practice entering data into Event Capture. In Event Capture, the
"when" is the Report Date, rather than the data set's Report Period (seen in the
previous assignment), and the Event does not repeat. Since Event Capture records
anonymous events, it does not involve registration.
