[Bob Jolliffe <bobjolliffe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Morning Gerald.  No this error would have nothing to do with importing
metadata or metadata that was previously imported as far as I can think.

It is purely about duplicate reporting of data.  Usually two identical rows
in the batch you are importing.  Which is why I ask where you got this data
from that you imported?  If it was data exported from another dhis2 system
you wouldn't normally see this.  But if is from somewhere else (a
spreadsheet, ihris, some other system) there might be, for example,
duplicate orgunits in the batch.
