Differential data upload into National Data Warehouse is now possible with DWAPI tool. Differential upload is where a facility only uploads new records that were created/updated since the last successful DWAPI upload. This technology largely saves time and internet resources.
For the technology to work effectively, the flowing conditions have to be met:
- A facility has to Send All data at least once before using the differential feature in subsequent uploads. This applies also to new KenyaEMR and DWAPI installations and Reinstallations.
- ETL has to be recreated prior to extracting data into DWAPI
- For offsite (boardroom) DWAPI uploads, ETL table MUST be recreated prior to data extraction into DWAPI.
