"Data output and analysis organisation units" selection NOT respected an Analytics

Dear Team,

Am trying to look for this bug and whether it was fixed but seem its not because I have tested on the demo and the problem still exists.

  1. When we create users especially the district or lower level users, we restrict analysis to their Orgunits

I created a user ‘prosper’ on the demo and only assigned to Bo districts then put him a user group for dashboard sharing.

​When you use the user assigned Orgunits, it will shows the the entire country hierarchy in the the dashboard.

Hi Prosper,

in fact it is the “data capture / maintenance” org units which are used as basis for the “user org unit”.

The rationale behind this is that a typical user works at a district (and has the district as data capture org unit), and should be able to see the entire country or province for analysis. So here it makes sense to have the “user org unit” referring to the district in order to provide meaningful and relevant charts / pivots.

In your case, which “data capture” org unit did you select? I am guessing Sierra Leone. Try setting it to “Bo”, clear cache and try again.

So a potential weakness here is that one is allowed to specify a data output org unit which is below the data capture org unit. This situation will in fact lead to a conflict / validation error when you create analytics favorites with user org units.

Hi Prosper,

the “user org unit” / cache issue should be resolved in 2.23 now.

Could you please try again on your side?

We also discovered another related weakness today related to how we treat user org units in analytics - we do not send the user id together with the USER_ORG_UNIT keyword in the URLs, which means that a proxy cache will potentially return data which does not correspond to various user’s USER_ORG_UNIT. We will fix this asap.

Lars
