New Organization Units Import

 

Hi,

Is there any easy way(/preferred way) to import Organization Units (New ones) on blank DHIS2 system?
I have a list of organization units I like to add to the system, but like to know if there is an alternative to the individual manual add using DHIS UI. 

It seems there isn’t import function for this on DHIS, so I took a look at datatable for inserting straight to DB.
But, the ‘OrganizationUnit’ table has ‘UID’ field.  How do I generate that?  One of my data ‘jII07NoHiO5’ does seem like normal Uniquie Identifier number format.
And is this, adding rows straight to datatable, a OK way of mass importing the Organization Units on DHIS?
