Overview

This module adds a Person Attribute Type named "Tribe".  The potential tribes are stored in a table that is managed by the administrator.

Download: from the module repository

To Add Tribes

  • Go to the Administration screen

  • Click Manage Tribes (located in the Manage Patients section)

To Show/Hide the Tribe attribute on the edit forms

  • Go to the Administration screen

  • Click Manage Person Attributes Types

  • To see Tribes on the search screens

    • Add "Tribe" near the bottom of the screen next to Listing Person Attributes

  • To see Tribes on the short edit screens

    • Add "Tribe" near the bottom of the screen next to Viewing Person Attributes

Warning

The first time the tribe module runs, it will read the tribe column in the patient table and create the relevant person attributes. Then it will remove the tribe column in the patient table. That means after the tribe module runs, the database cannot be used with an older OpenMRS release again. The tribe data upgrade is one way only.
