Reverting to a Prior Version of a Doclet

When authoring a doclet in a report package and your updates or the outcome is incorrect after previewing the doclet, you can revert back to a prior doclet version. To see how this is done in Oracle Smart View for Office, see Reverting to a Prior Version of a Doclet.

To revert a doclet to a prior version:

Select the doclet in the report package to revert back to a prior version.
Click next to the doclet name.
Select Act on Content.
Select Checkout.
The doclet now displays a lock symbol next to it.
Click next to the doclet name.
Select Inspect from the drop down. The Inspect dialog is displayed for the doclet selected.
Select the Versions tab.
Select the version of the doclet you want to make current.
Select next to the doclet. A work in progress version of the doclet is created based on the selected doclet file(s).

Note:

A warning message is displayed regarding the content of the doclet you are replacing. The report content in the new version is based on the prior version. However, any embedded content or variables contained in the prior version are refreshed to their current values.
Optional: Preview the doclet to verify it is the correct content.
Check the doclet back in to the report package to commit the changes to the report.
