Version administration

The widget provides a list of draft and approved versions. For each of the versions, the latest date & time and name of the author who changed the version are displayed.

These instructions explain individual steps in version management:

To create the first draft, create and save a new mapping.
To edit the current draft, open and modify the mapping. Then save the changes.
- When a draft version has unsaved changes, an indicator, a yellow triangle, is displayed on the draft version in the version list of the mapping.
To approve the current draft, click the check mark in its line in the Versions widget. You can also approve single or multiple mappings from the Mapper overview page.
- If the draft has unsaved changes, you are prompted to save the changes before proceeding with the approval of the draft.
To edit an approved version, click the pencil icon. A new draft is created. The version number that is assigned to the draft is incremented from the latest approved version number, existing or already deleted. Each version number is unique.
To delete an approved version, click the bin icon. You can delete only an inactive approved version. To verify whether the version is inactive, check the active/inactive identifier above the widget. The system always requires that at least one draft or one approved version exists.
For activation of an approved version of a mapping, the respective mapping must be saved properly.
