Hi there. I am not sure if this is a bug or not, but I wanted to clearly
understand what the implications are.

I have just installed a fresh DHIS 2 database, with data imported from DHIS
1.4 (hopefully, this is the last time I will have to do this).
I set about reassigning organizational units in the "Assign organizational
units  to map"

There is a a single organizational unit that actually does not correspond to
any geographical entity in the organizational hierarchy, which is probably a
bug in an of itself, but anyway. I mistakenly assigned this organizational
unit to a unit on the map. It seemed to allow me to assign a multiple
organizational units to a single polygon, which seems wrong. I did not see
any functionality to "remove" an organizational unit once it has been
assigned, although I thought that this was there on one version.

Anyway, here are the contents of my maporganisationunitrelation table.


25227;25226;5781;"Western"
25228;25226;4158;"Northern"
25229;25226;4160;"Western"
25230;25226;4159;"Southern"
25231;25226;4153;"Central"
25232;25226;3900;"Copperbelt"
25233;25226;4156;"Lusaka"
25234;25226;4154;"Eastern"
25235;25226;4155;"Luapula"
25236;25226;4157;"North Western"

Clearly, "Western" has been assigned to two organizational units in the
database. I am not sure if this is a bug or a functionality, but it would
seem to not be possible to assign a single organizational unit to a given
polygon (or point). I would think there should be a database contraint to
prevent the assignment of multiple organizational units within a single map.


Maybe the devs can explain this one?

I am not sure what implication this has on functionality at this point, if
any.

Best regards,
Jason
