Hi Juan,

You are correct in that the "Search in all Facilities" option in FInd/Add
Person searches for persons in all orgunits of the database.
The default search is to search for Persons in the selected (in the left
side orgunit menu) orgunit, which can be done with one orgunit at a time
only.

So far this has been designed to support users that work at a facility and
typically only have their own facility in the orgunit tree.
The "search in all" is an option to be able to look up persons outside the
facility from any part of the country, in case of migration etc.

The workflow you describe seems different in that you would have DHIS users
at higher levels (e.f. a district or province office) doing
backlog/"non-real time" data entry for multiple facilities based on
submitted paper reports/forms, but within a limited area of the
country/region/organisation (a subset of the full DHIS orgunit hierarchy).

For this use case we would have to add a new option in the Advanced Search
feature called something like "Search in all visible orgunits" or "Search
in user's orgunits".
This would have to be supported by a new authority (for user roles) that
allows the user to do this kind of search.

See attached screenshot for what I mean.

Would that work for your use case Juan?

Ola
