Need to update location IDs in ACW

Can you please update the Location ID list in ACW to be as follows:
Africa - All - highest level in the hierarchy
- Africa - East
- Africa - South
- Africa - Central
- Africa - West
This means to please also remove the country names that currently sit beneath Africa - South and Africa - East.
This should leave us with Africa - All at the highest level and only 4 location IDs below that for each region.

Thanks!
Maureen

Hi Jason

With the success of the presentation you and Maureen did we are getting swamped with new organizations and users. This will help streamline their onboarding.

Thanks

Hi @PaulK and @ACWadmin1

I need to understand this further as this may mean I need to migrate data from old location IDs to new ones. Currently the list looks like:

Can you type out how the list should look? I just want to make sure I don’t mangle this change.

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason

Maureen has scrubbed the data - no migration should be required.

List should read as follows:

Africa - All
Africa - South
Africa - East
Africa - Central
Africa - West
Africa - North

Thanks

The regional ones should be indented - neither spaces nor tabs seem to work

@jason

Cool. I double checked in the database, and you’re right: only two values were ever used and the countries can be deleted without data migration.

I believe the change is now deployed:

Does this match your expectations?

Thanks,
Jason
