Dear Laura, I once tried it that way but DHIS does now allow org unit import using the meta-data format as you specified. I am not sure though whether there is a way to import massive number of org units into DHIS using a GUI yet. Maybe the developers can clarify but talking about mimicking, it doesn't work. It will give no error but you won't find them in the database. I hope this helps. Regards, Adedayo Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone.
Hello,
We are trying to import organizational unit data from another system into an instance of DHIS 2.15.
To create the import XML file, I mimicked the Meta-Data XML Export file for exporting only Organizational Units. I stripped that file down to just one simple org unit (at Level 2, Province) and revised it to reflect new test data for a new test org unit.
I have all pertinent data in the XML file (including complete parent data) except for the internally generated "id" for this new org unit -- so I tried a couple of things: a) I made an id up, and b) I tried to import without "id". The Meta-Data import does not import the test data in either scenario. I get no error message but in querying the data on the backend this test org unit does not exist in the database.
Any help would be appreciated. TIA.
