Disaggregation Groups & Disaggregation Values: Slice and Dice Indicators


This page covers:


Disaggregation Groups Overview

Organizations may choose to disaggregate their indicators using disaggregation groups. Disaggregation groups allow users to define common ways that Indicators can be broken down into relevant smaller sets for more granular management and reporting.

For example, you can create a Disaggregation Group called Age Group with Disaggregation Values like 0-25, 26-50 and 51+ , thus enabling the ability to break down targets and results for specified indicators into different age brackets.

Each Disaggregation Group serves as a parent record to a set of Disaggregation Values. In the "Age Group" example, the group would include values such as 0–25, 26–50, and 51+, allowing for structured and comparable disaggregation across relevant indicators.

Create Disaggregation Groups with Disaggregation Values

To create a Disaggregation Group, go to the Disaggregation Groups tab and click New.

  1. Enter the Name of the Disaggregation Group.

Values for the Name fields cannot include semicolons (;) to preserve the functionality of search filters for the ampi__Disaggregation_Group__c field.

2. Enter the translated value(s) for the Disaggregation Group name in the appropriate field.
a. Ensure that the translated value corresponds to the Language code defined by the System
Admin. For example, if the System Admin has set up the Custom Label
USER_LANGUAGE_CODE such that Language 1 is ‘Spanish’, enter the Disaggregation
Group in Spanish for ampi__Name_Language_1__c.

3. If up to three supported languages are enabled and set up by the System Admin, populate the
following fields in the languages defined as Language 1, Language 2, and Language 3:
a. ampi__Name_Language_1__c
b. ampi__Name_Language_2__c
c. ampi__Name_Language_3__c

4. Click Save.

5. Next, you need to enter the Disaggregation Values. To create them, click New Disaggregation Value
in the related list on the Disaggregation Group.

6. Enter the name of the Disaggregation Value, and which order it should display on the data entry
pages (Set Targets and Add Results).

7. For example, if a user is creating disaggregation values for the Age disaggregation group:

Disaggregation Value

Order

Disaggregation Value

Order

Under 5 years old

1

6-15 years

2

16+ years

3

a. Ensure that the translated value corresponds to the Language code defined by the System
Admin.

8. If up to three supported languages are enabled and set up by the System Admin, populate the
following fields in the languages defined as Language 1, Language 2, and Language 3:
a. ampi__Name_Language_1__c
b. ampi__Name_Language_2__c
c. ampi__Name_Language_3__c

9. Finally, click Save and New to create additional Disaggregation Values. You may add any number of Disaggregation Values as children to a single Disaggregation Group.


Note that:

  • Sex disaggregation is available out of the box with Amp Impact. it is captured outside of the Disaggregation Group setup.

  • If multi-language functionality is set up, the translated value for the Disaggregation Group lookup
    dynamically displays the translated Name (ampi__Name_Translated__c) according to the User’s
    language setting.
