12.1.3.12.3 Compare Versions

Over time, a company’s processes or rules can undergo significant changes. Referring to a previous version of an object allows a user to assess improvements or identify potential regressions in the new version. The EPC facilitates users to compare the current version of an object with all previously published or draft versions (only for process). This feature highlights any changes from the selected version to the current version.

How to use the ‘Compare Version’ Tool

1. Navigate to the desired Rule Details view or Process Diagram view.
2. Click on the ‘Tools’ menu.
3. Hover over the ‘Compare Version’ option.
4. All previous versions will be displayed.
   • The published versions will be displayed first. Hover over the ‘All Version’ option to display all previous versions, including drafts.
     
5. Click on the desired version to compare.
6. The comparison window will appear, with the selected previous version on the left and the current version on the right panel.

Additional Rules

• When a user wants to see “Version Compare” of Rules, the object must have an older publish version.
• When a user is seeing the comparison of rules on “Version Compare”, then the user should see elements that were added highlighted in green, and elements that were deleted highlighted in red.
• Compare previous versions is not compatible with sub-process and IPL expansions turned on. If an IPL or a sub-process is expanded and the user compares previous versions, the IPL and sub-process will be collapsed.
