Re: Org uni tree - Displaying "short name" rather than "name"

 

Hi Lise,

In each data element configuration screen you have a field called "form
name" which is the name displayed in the forms. If left blank, DHIS2 will
display the data element name by default.

The solution to your problem is to copy/paste the 'short name' field into
the 'form name' field.

Best regards,

Thomas
