Microplan Assumptions

The Microplan Assumptions step is designed to streamline the process of defining critical campaign-related hypotheses based on the selected Resource Distribution Strategy and Campaign Type. This step consists of two substeps:

Step 1: Registration and Distribution Process Selection

This screen adapts based on the Resource Distribution Strategy chosen during the Campaign Details step.

1. Mixed Strategy:

For campaigns following the Mixed Strategy, the system prompts users to provide details for both the registration and distribution processes. However, the same method cannot be selected for both.

Prompts:

1. How is the campaign registration process happening?

   • Users are required to select from predefined options such as House-to-House, Fixed, etc.

2. How is the campaign distribution process happening?

   • Users must select a different option from the registration process, tailored to the distribution method (e.g., House-to-House, Fixed, etc.).

This distinction ensures that the two processes are appropriately differentiated and configured.

2. Fixed or House-to-House Strategy:

For these strategies, users are prompted to specify the relationship between registration and distribution processes:

Question:

• Is the registration and distribution process happening together or separately?

  • Options:

    • Together

    • Separately

The response determines how the system pre-configures subsequent assumptions.

Step 2: Assumptions Form

Once the registration and distribution process is selected, users proceed to the Assumptions Form, which dynamically adapts based on campaign-specific parameters.

Configurability of Assumptions Data (Categories and Assumptions)

The form fetches data from the MDMS and includes categories and assumptions customized according to:

• The Campaign Type (e.g., Bednets, SMC)

• The Resource Distribution Strategy (e.g., House-to-House, Fixed)

Example of some dynamic categories of Assumptions:

1. General Assumptions:

   • High-level parameters that apply to the overall campaign.

2. Registration Assumptions:

   • Assumptions specific to how and where registration activities occur.

3. Distribution Assumptions:

   • Parameters defining the methodology and logistics for distributing resources.

4. Commodities Assumptions:

   • Details about distributed items, such as the number of bednets per household.

Features of the Assumptions Form:

1. Input Values:

   • Users must input specific values for each assumption.

   • Validation Rules:

     • Assumption values must:

       • Be numerical and are mandatory. and fall within the range of 0 to 1000.

       • Contain at most two decimal places (e.g., 12.34 is valid, but 12.345 is not).

       • Adhere to a specific format, ensuring they match the pattern of a valid decimal or whole number (e.g., 123.45 or 678).

   • Tooltips:

     • Each category includes input parameters with tooltips that provide detailed information when users hover over the respective field.

2. Manage Assumptions:

   • Users can add new assumptions or delete existing ones based on campaign needs.

   • Initiate Adding an Assumption:

     • Users can click the "Add New Assumption" button from the assumptions management interface.

     • Assumption Details Input:

       • A popup/modal is displayed with the following fields:

         • Choose Assumption: A dropdown or selection box to choose an existing assumption or create a new one.

         • Assumption Name: An input field where users specify the name of the new assumption.

     • Confirmation Options:

       • Cancel: Discards the changes and closes the popup/modal.

       • Add: Saves the new assumption after passing validation checks.

     • 

       

       

• Deleting Assumption

  • Users can click the "Delete" button from the assumptions management interface.

  • Confirmation Options:

    • No: Discards the changes and closes the popup/modal.

    • Yes: Deletes the assumption.

  • Recovering deleted assumption:

    • Users can click the "Add New Assumption" button from the assumptions management interface and select the deleted assumption from the Choose Assumption dropdown.

Customization and Management:

Each assumption category and its parameters are dynamically tailored based on:

• The selected Campaign Type

• The chosen Resource Distribution Strategy
