Revision History

If a project is under version control, the revision history table shows all activity for that project, including user, check-in date, revision notes, and status. To see the revision history for a project, do the following: 

  1. Click on the project name in the project list and click the Revisions tab to view the revision history. The system displays the active revision n bold. NOTE: This may or may not be the latest revision.
  2. Click Edit to update revision status or revision notes.
    • select revision status from Draft, Beta, Released
    • added for Release 8.3 are Discontinued, Restricted (Restricted only available to Designer Users with admin access)
  3. Click Revert to update to a later version (not shown) or revert to a prior version.
    • Designer Users with read-only access will not be able to revert or edit revision notes (Release 8.3+)

For v8.2 the revision history displays two additional pieces of meta data, as follows:

  • When the project is checked out, the  revision history shows the check-out details (see A below) including:
    • Who checked out the project and when
    • On which installation the checkout occurred
    • In which Designer workspace the checkout occurred
    • The local project ID, which is the unique identifier for the checked out project and used on the server
  • Revisions show from which revision the changes are based (see B below). This is normally sequential; for example, revision 3 is based on revision 2 and revision 2 is based on revision 1. However, this meta data allows you to create "branches" and still see the prior source for any revision and trace the revision journey.
