Dear DHS team,

Thank you for your response.

Using the method you suggested removed the warning but the new scaled weight varialbe I created is actually in four digits for each observation. I have values of wt_scaled like (4061.151, 3859.654 etc). Is this normal or should I divide this by 1000?

Additionally when I create the table using tbl_svysummary() the overall sample size of the data increases exponentially. I am using Benin 2018 DHS KR data and the number of obersation increase from 3937 to total population that I have used for scaling the weight (14.080.072).

What should I do in this case?

Best
Mahir
