Re: Clarification on Organisation unit, groups and group sets

 

Just to be perfectly clear: The way you are assigning the SAME
organisationunit as both Hospital or Health Center on the one hand and at
the same time as Public or Private on the other hand is EXACTLY the way it
is intendended. The system has been designed to help you do analysis along
several dimensions, and the Pivot Tables are especially well suited for
slicing your data and indicators along multiple dimensions depending on
what you are interested in.
