Add missing columns to detailed export in contacts #2355

Open max-hzi opened 4 years ago

max-hzi commented 4 years ago

Feature Description

The detailed export sheet in contacts only includes the case ID of the index case. All the other info (name, address,...) is missing.

Proposed Change

Add all available columns of the index case, if existing, to the detailed export sheet of contacts. This group of columns should be placed on the right side of the grouped contact columns.

@max-hzi That's something we need to discuss in our review. I tend to disagree because that will make the export significantly slower. We've included the case ID to allow users to export both contacts and cases and then use both files to get details about the contact case if they need to.

Ok, I see your very valid point.

Maybe I can provide more info on why I came up with this Issue: A health department needs the number of index cases outside of their jurisdiction. Is there a chance to at least include the most crucial information of the index case (name, address, dates)?

I think both points are valid. The best solution to me was to keep it as it is but as Max told me, the users do not need a third party software. Adding all missing fields be default is a no-go option also. @MateStrysewskeSym what about building a flexible export for contacts and worn the users about the time needed if they select many variables

@max-hzi I guess that would be possible, yes. @bernardsilenou I think we already have an issue for adding custom contact exports - this can be a part of it.
