Understanding history

The TeamWork history feature maintains all changes to vault data over time, including revisions to documents. History is enabled or cleared for each vault.

The last released revision of a document is always the default shown in a vault. However, by using the Show Revisions command, you can see all previous revisions and their effective dates. History also allows you to view the entire vault at a particular moment in time and save a shortcut to that moment, called a baseline. When you view history, all documents and their revisions, property values, and references appear as they were at that point in time.

While you are viewing history, the background of the client applications is gray, indicating that the vault is read-only. You cannot edit or create documents in history. In addition, the context bar and the status bar show the date and time or baseline name that is currently being viewed.
