Org uni tree - Displaying "short name" rather than "name"

Dear all,

Is there a way of displaying “short name” of the org unit, rather than “name” in the data entry and event capture Apps?

Hi Lise,

In each data element configuration screen you have a field called “form name” which is the name displayed in the forms. If left blank, DHIS2 will display the data element name by default.

The solution to your problem is to copy/paste the ‘short name’ field into the ‘form name’ field.

Best regards,

Thomas

Dear Thomas,

Thank you for your answer. However, I am talking about org units, not about data elements.

Best regards,

Lise.

Hi Lise,

Sorry, I’ve answered a bit too fast. Then I’m afraid the answer is no.

Best regards,

Thomas

Hi Lise,
I think it’s just possible for analysis modules unless i’m wrong.
