Hi Jens,

As a quick follow up, I would differentiate, for the respective audiences
of your information products,the  conceptual, logical and physical models
(all ERDs with different level of details) versus explanation of key
concepts (existing in the model) but represented and exposed to the users
in the system graphical user interface (GUI).

You will find most systems have different documentations:
- user manuals (mostly task-oriented guide to different functionality
across the system)
- other technical documentation for administrators covering requirements,
installation, troubleshooting,...
- on-line help/FAQs (usually derived from the 2 other types above)

Hope this helps.

Best,
/Phil

I've found in the user manual the next pictures
http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/apes04.html. Anyway, is there
anything more complete than that?
