Version |
Contour incremented identifier for each version. |
A point in time where all Items in a Project are marked such that point in time can be recreated and reported against. Only those versions that were active when a Baseline was created will have a value in this cell. |
|
Change Details |
The system will generate automatic change details to reflect the changes made by the user. |
User Comment |
These are the comments that were applied when the user committed their update. |
Created |
The date and time that the new version was created. |
By |
The users that made the update to the Item that resulted in a new version. |
Action |
The only action is Make Current which takes a copy of the selected version and inserts it as the latest version for an Item. |
Compare Versions
Contour provides you with the ability compare two versions of the save Item to each other.
| 1. | Select the From version and To version. |
| 2. | Click on the Compare button. |
| 3. | A window will open that has the complete detail of the Items selected; the From version will be on the left-side and the To version on the right-side. |
| 4. | The fields containing differences will be highlighted. |
| 5. | Click on the Show details option to see the values before and after. |
Hint: The Show Detail option is most helpful when trying to determine differences in Text and String fields where only a few characters may have changed.
