I do see that Org Unit Parents has an additional column, for "Row Version". What is row version? I do not find its definition.
Hi Renee. I can look into this for you. thanks Joel.
Hi Renee,
Org Unit Parents is the direct relationship one step up in the hierarchy, Org Unit Ancestors would be one row for each org unit above this org unit in the hierarchy (parents, grandparents, great-grandparents etc. - to borrow from the family terminology).
The row version is a way of indicating which row is newest - you would use it with differentials primarily. If you are looking at two rows that have the same primary key in a given file (indicating there has been more then one update in that time period), the newest one has a larger Row Version.
Hope that helps!
