Revision/Version Control System (VCS)

The Revision control system allows keeping track of all changes made to Bills of Materials (BOMs) and Routings.

This functionality can be turned on at Settings -> System settings -> Enterprise functions -> Version control system.

If this is turned on, then:

Every update to a BOM or a Routing creates a new revision of the document.
On the BOM and Routing details pages, there is the list of previous versions, with the Created date, Notes, and User information.
It is possible to restore a previous version of the BOM or the Routing.
It is possible to view a PDF of the previous version.
It is possible to edit notes. In the Edit mode, move the mouse over the notes, and edit them.
In the BOM and Routing subsections of Production Planning, in part Versions it is possible to search by number, date period, name, user created, and notes.
