Hi there.  This is not the intended function of these settings.

For data capture, this will restrict data entry to a given branch of the
hierarchy.  For instance, if this person is responsible for a given
district and it's facilities, you should assign them to the district.  In
the data entry screen, the user will only see that districts branch of the
hierarchy. Data entry will still be controlled by the data set assignments.


For the analysis hierarchy, the intent of this feature is to restrict the
user to a given branch. For instance, in a Global hierarchy, you might want
to restrict users to their country (which you would select). This would
have the effect of allowing them to do data entry at say the district
level, but see data across their own country (but not above it).

This seems to be a very misused feature, and one poorly explained in the
documentation after I took at look at it now to refer you to it.

Hope this helps. My advice would be

1) Do not have multiple roots to the hierarchy. There should always be just
a single level 1 node.

2) Do not assign the super user role to anything other than this top root
node

3) Do not assign users too many data entry orgunits. Let the data set
assignments take care of this.

4) Do not use the data analysis orgunits at all, unless you have a specific
reason to restrict users to a particular branch of the hierarchy.

5) Consider using approvals if you really need to obfuscate data from
certain classes of users.


Regards,

Jason
