Select a registered map and wait for it to load. The organisation units (OU) in your database on this level will appear in the list and colors will appear in the map. What we want to do here is creating relations between OUs in the database and the corresponding OUs in the shapefile. This is often necessary because of inconsistencies in the naming in the geographical data, and what is present in the DHIS database. First, try auto-assign at the bottom toolbar to let the application link the OUs with a matching OU name in the shapefile. The polygons that remain white, you will have to link manually by first selecting a white OU in the list and then click the corresponding OU in the map.

The remove button at the button tool bar removes the selected OU’s link. The remove all button removes all OU links for the selected map.
