Removing/Merging OrganisationalUnits

Hi All,
What is the best and prefered way to removing(delete) an org-units or merging two org-units so the data in the other can be move to the unified org-units.
As is now you can’t delete an org-units that holds data.

Thanks,

Bayoh.

Hi Ibrahim,

Are you saying you have data for two separate orgunits, but now you want only to keep one of them?

So, if malaria cases at Clinic A was 50 and Clinic B was 32, you want to just keep Clinic B, but add the data to 82?

Hi Bayoh,
Please have a look at the two sql functions here

  1. https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-utils/blob/master/resources/sql/delete_site_with_data.sql

  2. https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-utils/blob/master/resources/sql/merge_orgunits.sql

The first one, will delete a site with data, and is used by the second to merge data according to different strategies.

This used to be available in the core, but has been removed for now, as it was not implemented properly. Hopefully, it will be back soon.

In the meantime, you should be able to use or adjust these scripts to your needs. We have used these successfully in production systems, but as always, review it and make a backup.

Regards,

Jason
