Thanks. I'm now understanding the issue, and the issue is the denominator being shown for proportion of demand satisfied is the denominator of all women (which is the one presented in the table in the report), but for this indicator, the numerator is all women using a modern method, and for the denominator all women with a demand for family planning (taken from one of the other columns in the table). If you calculate the numerator for total demand, that is actually also the denominator for the proportion of demand satisfied. We will look to get this resolved in the API.
