Compare current model with a version

You can compare the selected model version to the model in your workspace or the previous version. The model on your workspace may contain changes that have not yet been versioned and the comparison allows you to identify how the model has been changed compared to the selected version.

Prerequisite

You have opened a versionable database containing versioned models.

Procedure

  1. Click ARIS > Explorer Explorer. The Explorer tab opens.
  2. Use the navigation to open the database and group in which the required model is stored.
  3. Click the name of the model.
  4. Activate the Versions tab in the detail view.
  5. Right-click the row of a version. The pop-up menu opens.
  6. Click Version > Compare with workspace or Version > Compare with previous version.

The two models are opened next to one another on a tab. Changes are highlighted in the model window. You can display more precise information about the changes in the Details pane. If a model that is used for the comparison is already open, it is moved to the model comparison tab.
