 <p>Data elements represent every piece of information registered in the DHIS. The data elements are flexible in the way that they can represent any kind of information. Often data elements are called meta-information or meta-data, as they provide information of what is being captured in the system and does not represent the data values itself. The three main types of data that a data element in DHIS represents are routine, semi-permanent and survey data. These will be explained further down.</p>

 <h4>The purpose of the datasets</h4>
 <p>The data entry (see below) and the import/export (see below) are organised around the datasets. Data are registered for 1 dataset at a time. All the data elements in one data entry form must come from the same dataset. In the data entry module, orgunits are only allowed to register data for the datasets that have been assigned to them in the Dataset Management section. A dataset will often represent the paper forms used in the health information system, but note that this is not a requirement for generating reports that look just like the paper forms. Reports can be designed based on the more fine-grained data elements and are not dependent on the datasets. See the report module below for more information on how to make reports.</p>
  
 <h4>How to add a new dataset</h4>
-<p>Click on the "Add new" button on the main page just above the operations list. You need to provide a name and select the frequency (period type) at which the dataset will be used for data entry. Then use the list of data elements to add the elements you would like for your dataset. Note that a data element can be added to multiple data sets. To avoid overlap of data, be careful so that the same data element is not part of to different datasets that are both assigned to the same orgunit and have different frequencies (e.g Monthly and Quarterly). When you have finished adding the data elements you need, click on the "Add dataset" button below the list boxes.

-<h4>How to assign a datset to sorgunits (enable data entry)</h4>
+<h4>How to assign a dataset to orgunits (enable data entry)</h4>
 In order to use the dataset for data entry you must assign it to the orgunits that are going to register data. In the dataset list select the wand symbol (leftmost symbol) next to your dataset. In the "Assign datasets to orgunits" window you can either select all orgunits at one specific level or assign or remove individual orgunits. You can also easily remove all selected orgunits by clicking on the "Select none" button. To assign to all orgunits at one level write in the desired level in the textbox and click on the "Select level" button. Then the tree will appear with all the selected orgunits in yellow colour. In the same tree you can assign more orgunits or remove some already selected. When you are finished click on the "Update" button. If you do not want to save your changes click the "Cancel" button.
