Rolling back forms
It is possible to "roll back" a form to a previous version. Existing reports that have been generated using the form before rollback will be unaffected and represent snapshots of the form as it was when they were generated.
Note: This functionality makes a copy of the form as it was in the selected previous version and makes it the current version.
- On the Forms tab, click Manage.
- In the list, select the form to roll back.
- Click Rollback....
- Select the version of interest and click the OK button.
- To proceed with the rollback operation, click OK.
A message is displayed letting you know that the form has been successfully rolled back to the selected version. It also informs you that the application needs publishing so that other users can see the changes in the form.
- Click OK to close the message.
- Close the Manage Forms dialog.
This displays the Manage Forms dialog.
The Rollback Form dialog is displayed.
A confirmation message is displayed.
The rolled back form appears with an asterisk in the list of forms on the Manage Forms dialog, indicating that it has been edited.
Note: The version number does not revert to the value specified in the Version column of the Rollback Form dialog as InfoAsset Mobile makes a copy of that version. Instead, it will take the value of the current published version incremented by 1. For example, if the current form version is 5 and the user wishes to revert to version 2, a copy of the form as it was in version 2 will be made and assigned the number 6 in terms of versioning.
