Go to CommCare HQ, select Users and then Organization Levels. Here, you can add or remove locations from your location hierarchy to make it better represent your model. Note, this is where you define your levels, locations themselves are defined in the Organization Structure tab.

  • Example. if you plan to create mobile users for pharmacists (who are in the role of stock-keeping) in multiple clinics in Cape Coast Village, Cape Coast Metro District in the Central region of Ghana, you need to first assign each particular clinic with different labels. In the example project, we want to register mobile users in several village-level facilities located in different districts under the same Great Accra region. So 4 location types are created: Region, District, Village, and Facility. For the Parent Level, choose the location one-level higher than the one you are creating. For the location on top of the hierarchy, the Parent Level is “-top level-”. Once you are done, click Save Organization Levels. You should create a non-administrative location (usually at the bottom of the hierarchy), which will be the last-mile point location managing stocks.  

Note that if you plan to register in multiple types of locations and have them report data using CommCare Supply, make sure all of them have 'Administrative only' deselected.


OK. Now you have configured your location hierarchy. Let's get down to create locations!
