Re: Setting up Point of Service sites

 

Hi Laura,

let me ask:

- What are your "point of services" ?
- How many?
- Are the point of services consistent across all facilities, or are there
lots of variation?

If the point of services are few and consistent across most facilities I
would use data set categories.

If they differ a lot (most likely) I would use org units.


regards,

Lars
