Hi Gerald,

Removal of orgunits with associated reports or charts is non trivial, due
to the use of the "sort_order" in these resources. It will cause a null
pointer exception if you just delete the orgunit.

I have added two functions to the dhis2-utils repo, which handle the
deletion and merging of orgunits.

To delete a  site with data , you can try the following postgresql function.

https://github.com/dhis2/dhis2-utils/blob/master/resources/sql/delete_site_with_data.sql

This function accepts the UID of the organisation unit to delete.

Obviously, this function is provided without any warranty. You should
certainly make a backup of the database prior to executing it.

This function will handle the removal of orgunits (with no children) and
should handle cleaning up the various report associations as well.

Be sure to clear your server cache afterwards.

Best regards,

Jason
