Hi Joseph
Thanks for sharing the script.

One thing to watch out for is the reordering of components of analytical
objects. You can see this here
<https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-utils/blob/master/resources/sql/delete_orgunit_with_data.sql#L64-L71>
in
the script I linked to in the earlier mail. If you delete an organisation
unit from say a chart, without reordering the other organisation units, it
will lead to an error when trying to load that object after the
organisation unit has been deleted.

Regards,
Jason
