Re: Exception when importing metadata dataelements

 

Pooben,

There is NO field called "Active" in the data element meta-data CSV import
- see table 1.11 in the developer manual (below)

There used to be a field called "Active" in the Organisationunit table, but
that was dropped in from version 2.17 or 2.18 onwards. There's never been
any "active" field in the data element or indicator tables - not even in
version 1.x

The only issue to be aware of is that the "name" column, which in the
description below is defined as Unique, actually is NOT unique. Only the
UID and Code columns are unique - if you import a data element with a name
that already exists in your DHIS2 instance (but where the UID is
different), it will import it and create a duplicate with no warning.

Regards
Calle
