Hi,

*I just found this email in the list archive (
http://lists.launchpad.net/dhis2-kenya) and realised I was not subscribed
yesterday since it was not in my inbox. **I've pasted in Samuel's email
about HF facility fields/attributes below for reference.*

*The fields you mention are very important and should definitely be in
DHIS2. Such information about orgunits are put in what is called orgunit
groups and these are again organised under orgunit group sets. This setup
can be a bit confusing at first, but when you have seen it you should be
able to easily add more groups and group sets. Thsi way we can add as many
fields or attributes as we want to the orgunits, we just have to add another
group set to describe the phenomena (e.g. Ownership), and then define the
possible "values" for that by creating groups (Public, Private, NGO,
faith-based etc.), and finally we assign orgunits to the groups they belong.
We could start by setting up the HF Type groupset together and then from
there you will all see how to create the remaining. The MFL is a great
resource for creating such groupsets/groups and we should be able to pull
the necessary information from there somehow.*

The Type and Ownership group sets are standard group sets (attributes) for
orgunits in DHIS2 so they are already in the system. I will now create a few
groups (with the names of the different types) and assign these to the Type
group set and then assign a few of the Machakos facilities to these groups
so that you can all see how this works.

Ola,
