Version View

The Version view allows a standard method for viewing items that are versioned. This allows you to see the version, reset the version and to mark the item as being a system item or not.

Version Features

Versioned items are designed to help alleviate the common problem of trying to move configuration around multiple deployments of the application. In LemonEdge most configurable items are versioned, meaning they have the following properties:

• Is System
  This indicates if the item is a system provided item. Users ordinarily don't have access to change these items and require special permissions on the team [see here] to do so.
• Version
  This holds the version of the item. When importing from configuration exports (xml files) the system will not import over any existing item if the current version is higher than the one in the import file.

Caution

It is recommended you don't change items marked as system, and instead simply create a copy and modify the copy.

Warning

If you do change a system one, be aware your changes may be overwritten on upgrade if the item has a lower version than the one provided in the upgrade and is still marked as being a system item.
