Re: [Dhis2-devs] Limit on data attribute - category options
Dear all,
This is also a requirement for us but we are wondering if it is possible to
implement a "user" visibility of the data sets category options. For
example a user from Spain only being acessible to the Spain Implementer
Partners or a user only accessing to the category options where he's in
charge to enter data.
Thanks a lot!
