Within each version of an asset you can have several revisions. When revision processing is enabled, CentraSite stores a new revision of the current asset version each time you update the asset. In CentraSite Control you can view the stored asset properties for each stored revision.

For example, if you have an asset whose current version is 2.1, you might want to modify the contents of the Description property of the asset in the asset's detail page, but without creating a new version. In this case, when you save the new description of the asset, the version number is updated automatically by CentraSite to 2.2.
