Re: Eliminating data

 

Hi Joao,


Your original mail said this..

>Is there any script which allows us deleting for any specific orgunit on a
given period?

So, that  sample query which I provided will delete all data for a specific
orgunit and a given period. i.e. all data elements for a given period for a
single orgunit. If you need specific data elements, then it might be
something like

DELETE FROM datavalue where sourceid = X and periodid = Y and dataelementid
IN (A,B,C,D);

where A,B,C,D correspond to the data elements which you want to actually
delete.


 If there are more restrictions, you will just have to develop an SQL query
which fits you needs.

There is no linkage of datavalues to data sets, only to data elements. Just
follow the foreign key constraints in the datavalue table, and it will make
things a bit more clear.

If you need more help, just provide more detail, and we can try and help
out.

Regards,
Jason
