Re: DELETING FACILITIES WITH DATA FROM THE DHIS

 

Hi,

Alex and my posts crossed: if you want to keep that historic data, follow
Alex' suggestion. But if you want to get rid of it - the data might be
irrelevant or duplicates - then using a script is easiest.

As far as I know, there is no "Prune Organisational Units" functionality
(which would completely remove Orgunits with all their data) in DHIS2
similar to the functionality in DHIS 1.4

Regards
Calle
