Do you have a structure in the data your are importing, or is it a flat list with any ou-levels? I would personally use the DHIS 2 web-api to import the data.
For examples, look at our documentation for meta-data import: http://dhis2.org/doc/snapshot/en/user/html/ch23s04.html So you would use something like: <metaData> <organisationUnits> <organisationUnit> .... </organisationUnit> <organisationUnit> .... </organisationUnit> <organisationUnit> .... </organisationUnit> <organisationUnit> .... </organisationUnit> </organisationUnits> </metaData> For examples of the meta-data, have a look at: http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api http://apps.dhis2.org/demo/api/metaData.xml This can then be pushed into DHIS using your username/password, and a proper content-type (I would personally use cURL for this) -- Morten On Wed, Dec 5, 2012 at 4:20 PM, ChangJames <jamesbjch...@hotmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > Is there any easy way(/preferred way) to import Organization Units (New > ones) on blank DHIS2 system? > I have a list of organization units I like to add to the system, but like > to know if there is an alternative to the individual manual add using DHIS > UI. > > It seems there isn’t import function for this on DHIS, so I took a look at > datatable for inserting straight to DB. > But, the ‘OrganizationUnit’ table has ‘UID’ field.
