Re: OptionSet and Yes-only Data Elements on Aggregated

 

This sounds like the same problems we face in Nigeria, with a lot of the
USG data. There may be multiple partners working in a clinic, usually not
performing the same activity. We handle this by creating an orgunit below
the facility. However, this has problems as well, as the
orgunit hierarchy needs to potentially be populated with an orgunit for
each partner. This has serious negative effects on the performance of the
datamart, as the number of orgunits in the hierarchy increases as a
function of the number of facilities and the number of partners. . In our
case, each partner should only have access to enter data to their own
facilities, but because of the way that authority is granted downwards in
the orgunit hierarchy, one must be careful in allocating each orgunit to a
specific partner, with no access to the facility level unit. It is also a
real pain to maintain.

Again, I think this comes back to the elusive "source" dimension, which it
seems someone thought about at sometime, which is actually distinct from
the orgunit dimension.
