I just noticed the search option for choosing org units. How do ordinary users (or newbies like me) know the orgunit code? I haven't been able to do a successful orgunit search on dhis.uio.no/dev and haven't been able to see any info on org unit codes anywhere?
The fact that it is only "search by code" should also maybe not be hidden in the alt text, at least it was lost on me for a while. And, I'm guessing red background means unsuccessful search?
All in all, I think, as org unit search has a prominent placement, it should probably be a bit more immediately understandable?
This has now been improved. It now searches first on orgunit code, if no match is found it searches on orgunit name ignoring case. Red means no match at all. Its implemented with ajax so no page reload happens.
