Working with Revision Control

You use two zones in the dashboard to work with revision controlled objects when revision control is turned on .

The Revision Control zone gives you several options for managing the revision of the currently displayed object. This zone also shows when the object was last revised and by whom. This information is linked to the Revision History portal which lists all of the versions of the object.

Using the Revision Control zone you can:

Check out an object in order to change it.
Check in an object so others will be able to work on it.
Revert the object back to where it was at the last checkout.
Force a check in of an object that is checked out by someone else. You need special access rights to force a check in.
Delete an object.

The Checked Out zone lists all of the objects that you currently have checked out. Clicking on an object listed in this zone will take you to the page for that object. The zone is collapsed if you have no objects checked out.
