Re: [Dhis2-users] Looking for Human Resource System to integrate with DHIS

[David Muturi]

Hi Laura,
I was part of the team that rolled out iHRIS manage in Kenya while working
for the capacity Project, afterwards I worked with the MOH HIS team in
managing dhis2 thus got a technical view of both worlds. I provided
technical assistance last year that enabled the iHRIS manage to send
monthly summaries to the MOH dhis2 system.

Re: [Dhis2-users] [Dhis2-devs] Looking for Human Resource System to integrate with DHIS

[Carl Leitner]

Hey Arthur,
Let me know if you would like to talk about this.  If you are keen on doing 
everything in DHSI2 (rather than an separate HRIS system, such as iHRIS) then 
there are some existing standard data models for health worker information that 
it would be good to model your data elements after.   

Are you looking more for the aggregate number of HWs or do you need information 
on the HWs themselves?
Cheers,
-carl

Hello Arthur - this is an interesting prospect. I'll explore with Calle and
the NDoH folk to see what they feel comfortable with.

Hi Morten,
I am using version 2.22, but will upgrade soon. Are there plans to support
CSV import ?  I have often used the api to send in a json  payload for
these objects is the syntax for these objects the same as the one sent via
the api ?

Hi Devs,
Dhis2 currently supports import of the following object types:-

1.  Data elements

  3·   Category options
  4 · Category option groups
  5.·  Organisation units
  6·   Organisation unit groups
  7·  Validation rules

Are there plans to include the following object types in future?

a)  Indicators and indicator groups

b)  Categories and Category Combinations

c)   Indicators and Indicator groups

d)  Users

e)  Tracked entity Instance

f)   Enrollments

g)  Events

I have relied on developing scripts to import the above missing objects
such as users via the API, is there an app that already does this? This
affects initial project configs where the above object types are many and
any manual upload is bound to take a lot of time.
