[Bug 1625143] [NEW] The role/authority ‘Search tracked entity in all Org Units’ is not working, and even with this authority, a search will return only tracked entity instances that are registered/enrolled within user's own assigned org units

 

Public bug reported:

Hi all,

The ‘search tracked entity instance in all Org Units’ authority doesn’t
appear to be working in 2.24 – see section 26.2 of the 2.24 User Guide
for details of this authority.  (This feature has been documented for
quite some time now, but I haven’t yet had a chance to check whether or
not it’s working in earlier versions of DHIS2.)  Even after being given
a role containing this authority, users do not appear to be able to
search for tracked entity instances outside of their assigned ‘data
capture’ Org Units.


To reproduce this in the 2.24 stable demo:

1. While logged in as ‘Admin’, go to ‘Tracker Capture’, select ‘MNCH /
PNC (Adult Woman)’, and select the Njandama MCHP org unit.

2. Type ‘Sarah’ in the search box – it should return a record for Sarah
Thompson registered at Ngelehun CHC.

3. Go to the User app, and update the role ‘MNCH / PNC (Adult Woman) program’ to include the following authorities:
- Add/update tracked entity data value
- Add/update tracked entity instance
- Delete tracked entity data value
- Delete tracked entity instance
- Search tracked entity instance
- Search tracked entity instance in All Org Units
- See browser cache cleaner module
- See dashboard integration module
- See Tracker Capture Module

4. Create a new user with just this role, and give it only the Njandama
MCHP Org Unit.

5. Log out and back in again with this new user.

6. Go to ‘Tracker Capture’, select the Njandama MCHP Org Unit (it should
be the only one showing), and select the ‘MNCH / PNC’ program.

7. Type ‘Sarah’ in the search box – no records are returned; click to
show ‘detailed search’, and only the Njandama Org Unit is showing
(rather than the wider OU tree mentioned in the documentation), meaning
this user is not able to search for tracked entity instances
registered/enrolled at Ngelehun CHC.


Tested on DHIS2 2.24 stable demo (revision fff20a3); Chrome version 53.0.2785.116 (64-bit); Mac OSX 10.11.6 (15G1004)
