Re: DELETING FACILITIES WITH DATA FROM THE DHIS

 

Hi devs,
In line with this, are there any plans to restore the 'organizational units merge' functionality that was removed in a previous version?

Thanks,
Ime

Hi there.
I have added a Postgresql function to delete a site with data here <https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-utils/blob/master/resources/sql/delete_site_with_data.sql>.

Use at your own risk, but we have used this successfully in production systems.

Regards,
Jason

    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

        Dear Mohamed,

        Untag them from datasets. They will not affect your reporting
        rates and completeness.

        If you delete them, you will be deleting historical data
        (which I think you want).
        How I have solved this problem in Uganda, I always tag them as
        closed or Non functional using an organisation Unit Group Set.

            Hi all,

            We are currently trying to delete old facilities from our
            main server
            but nothing seems to be happening since these facilities
            already have
            data.Is there a way one can do this or disable the
            facilities as this
            is currently affecting the completeness of our data.

            I need your help please.
