Reverting to an Older Revision
If you have several revisions of an asset version and you want to revert to an older revision than the current revision, you can do this using the Revert button. When you revert to an older revision, all revisions newer than the selected revision are deleted.
Follow these general guidelines when reverting asset to an older revision:
*The revert feature is only available if the outgoing associations of the older revision are still valid, that is, the objects referred to by the older revision must still exist.
*If an older revision is reactivated in this way, the ownership and organization of the asset are set to those of the user who activated the revert feature.
*If you want to revert to a revision that has a different lifecycle state than the current revision, you will be asked to confirm that you want to revert to the older revision. In this case, you must also have permission to change the lifecycle state.
*When you revert to an older revision, instance level permissions are not restored.
*To be able to use the revert feature, you need View and Modify permissions on the current state of the object as well as at least View permissions on the revision that you want to revert to.
*To revert to an older revision of an asset version
1. In CentraSite Control, go to Asset Catalog > Browse.
2. In the Assets pane, right-click an asset to view a list of its revisions, and click Details.
You can also select multiple assets, click the Actions menu, and click Details.
3. In the asset details page, click the Versions tab.
A list of the available revisions for the asset is displayed in the Versions profile.
4. In the asset version where you want to revert to an older revision, right-click the older revision that you want to revert.
5. Click Revert.
This removes all revisions newer that the selected revision, and makes the selected revision the new current revision.
