Editing the selected version

Editing an application item – using a form as an example

Depending on where in the system we are working from, the way to go to editing an application item may differ slightly.

Editing the latest version of the form

If you are in the module Library, in the Forms, editing the selected form will be possible by clicking its row in the list and then using the Edit (pencil icon in the top-right toolbar).

Alternatively, the form can also be opened from the Forms tab in the module Applications, provided that the given form has previously been added to the given application. In that case, clicking its row will take the user directly to the form editor.

Editing a selected version of the form

To edit a specific version of the form (e.g. an older or test version), open the Version history:

• From the form editor – by clicking the Versions,
• From the module Library or Applications – via the context menu in the Forms, selecting the option Version history.

Illustration 1. Selecting the "Version history" option in the "Forms" tab of the "Applications" module

Version history displays a drop-down list of main versions (1, 2, 3, ...) along with the subordinate versions assigned to them (1.1, 1.2, ...). Clicking the row of a given subordinate version opens it in preview or edit mode – depending on available permissions and version state.

For one main version of the form, only one draft version can be edited at a time. Details are described in section: Draft (working draft/copy) of an application item
