Hello Dear, My name is emmanuel.
I am using kobo data, but i just realized that the data in exported/downloaded excel sheet are not the same data that are on the kobo dashboard.
help me to find out why?
Hi @Emma,
Welcome to the community! Would you mind providing a screen shot on the miss-match that you see within KoBo dashboard and the excel sheet (downloaded xls dataset).
HI Kal_Lam
I have this same issue and I did not find any forum with a response.
I have some data of the members of the household (in child sheet) that is on the Kobo platform but when I download the Excel file, is lost. Do you have any idea what can be happening?
@palarcon, could you also share with the community a screenshot of the same so that we could understand your issue pictorially?
Sure @Kal_Lam thanks!
Please take a look, This 757 is the index of a household. When I look for it in the child sheet it looks as if there is no members of this family (child cases for this survey). But, when I look for this household from Kobo, there are actually 6 child cases for this parent: (here an example).
So, what is happening is that I can not know in Excel who are the members of this family. I have 83 cases with the same situation, and all of them were edited from Kobo, after the form was submitted, I do not know if maybe it generates damage to data.
Thanks a lot for your support!
@palarcon, is this a case from a repeat group?
Yes it is!
@palarcon, you could download your data as XLS (legacy) format. That should not have the issue. Besides, please also be informed that we have a release comming soon that should solve this issue:
@Emma, @palarcon, we have a release that fixed this issue. To learn more about the release, please feel free to go through the announcement:
