The option enables you to compare the currently previewed report with an archived report.
-
In the Print Preview window, select View > Compare
.
-
In the Report Comparison Options dialog, select Compare the current report with an archived report.
-
Select OK.
-
In the Report Revision Archive dialog, select the revision corresponding to the archived report that you require.
If there is a long list of revisions in the data window, type the required revision
number in the Revision filter box and select Activate.
-
Select OK to reopen the Print Preview window.
If the archived and the currently previewed reports are different, in the previewed
report the software marks the differences in color. If required, you can set your
own comparison highlight color and font style to indicate the differences for report
display. You can also set a grayscale and font style to indicate the differences in
a printed report.
Depending on the revision management settings defined by the Domain Administrator, after creating a document (drawing or report), you can save it as a revision.
When saving a revision, the software assigns a revision number to the saved document and saves the revision in the archive (backup), allowing you to compare the current document with the archived document.
After opening a document (that has been saved previously with a revision) and then making changes, saving (or refreshing) the document without saving as a new revision displays a prompt. Do you want to re-archive? Yes or No.
Click Yes, to overwrite the document without creating a new revision, retaining the last revision number of the document you opened and saving the document to the archive (re-archiving). If you now compare the current document with the archived document there are no differences.
Click No to save the document changes without a change in the revision number, but without saving the changes to the archive. If you now compare the current document with the archived document the differences are displayed.
