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