Tracking Repository Object Changes in Workspaces

The Workspace Objects Modified List applet lists all the objects that were modified in the selected version of the Workspace, and includes the following information: Object Name, Object Type, and Operation Type performed on the modified objects.

To track repository object changes in a Workspace

  1. In the Workspace Explorer (in the Workspace Dashboard), select the Workspace you want to track.

  2. Select a version of the Workspace in the Workspace Version applet.

  3. Review the changes in the Workspace Objects Modified List applet.

    The applet shows the following information: the object name, type, and operation that was performed for each modified object. The following table describes the values that can appear in the Operation column.

    Option Description

    Update

    Indicates an operation of updating a parent object record.

    Also indicates an operation of inserting, updating, or enabling the Inactive option for a child record.

    Insert

    Indicates an operation of inserting a new parent object record.

    Delete

    Indicates an operation of enabling the Inactive option for a parent object record.

  4. To see only the changes in the repository, then open a version of the Workspace.

    When you open a particular version of a Workspace, all versions preceding the selected version are also opened. For example, if the Workspace dev_sadmin_demo has 10 versions and you open the fifth version, then you can view the repository changes of version one through version five.

Note: You cannot delete any existing record in Workspace-enabled objects; but the new objects that were created in the latest Workspace version can be deleted in that version.
