Revert to previous active version of the development component

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have the following scenario:

- Check out a development component from a track in NWDI.

- Proceed to modify the resource.

- Check in the dc and activate it in NWDI.

If I want to revert back to the original version, is it possible and how?

Thanks.

Hi,

There is no option to revert the checked-in activity.

You can achieve this using the following work-around:

Pick your old version using version graph [In the Navigator Perspective -> R.Click on File -> DTR -> Show In-> Version Graph] and copy the content.

Now Check-out the file again and replace the current content with old content and check-in and activate.

Note: Be careful when doing this operation because, if this is an independent file there is no problem. If there are any dependencies you have to do the changes there also as well.

Hope this helps!

Thanks & Regards,

VJR.

Hi Suresh,

I am also at the same problem, I "checked in" an activity and activated it also in CBS.

I want to revert the changes in this activity.

I have tried the sync to date option as mentioned in the link you have provided. I have done this option on Inactive workspace.

I do not see the changes coming back. I even tried the option on Active version of the DCs. All the options in the context menu are grayed out.

Could you tell me how you were able to revert the changes?

hi,

After checkin it is not possible to revert back. so be careful.

Dont checkin your activities unless you are sure..

one solution is

There is one option Advanced->sync to date option. Where you can go on previous version.

Thanks for the reply.

Does that mean if I have checked in and activated many versions say version 1 to version 10, I am not able to revert back to say version 3?

HI,

See this the limitations. When i tried i was able to revert upto 2 last version. I have never tried as you said.

Thats why it is good practice. before checkin be sure about it.

It will be troublesome for you also
