Viewing Comparison History

When you access a form for which Comparison History has been configured using an enabled access mode (such as Respondent Update Mode or Workflow – Edit Page), fields with revisions are identified by a gray ‘revision’ icon at the right edge of the field. Mouse over a ‘revision’ icon to view Comparison History for the field:

The Comparison History popup shows all revisions that have been made to the field, in reverse-chronological order (newest revision first) and may include the name of the user that made the revision.

Mouse off the ‘revision’ icon to close the Comparison History popup.

Marking History ‘Viewed’

When Comparison History is marked as ‘viewed,’ the gray ‘revision’ icon either turns green, or is hidden from view. Depending on how Comparison History has been configured for the form, history is marked as ‘viewed’ using one of the following methods:

• Automatic

  If the form is configured to mark history viewed automatically, the ‘revision’ icon for a field changes to the ‘viewed’ state once the Comparison History popup for the field has been displayed.

• Dedicated Link

  The form may include one or more links which, when clicked, will mark Comparison History viewed for a single field, group of fields, or all fields.

• Trigger
  A trigger associated with the form marks Comparison History viewed when the form is submitted.
