Chapter 7 Working with Decision Tables : Working With History View

Working With History View
To view history, right click on a decision table in the Project Explorer and select Show History
Columns in the History view are as follows:
Request ID: This displays the unique request ID that is sent upon successful check-in operation. This check-in operation also contains the said resource.
Version: The version number of the resource at the time of the check-in operation.
User: The username who committed this resource.
Checkin Time: UTC time of check-in.
Submitter Comments: Optional comments added by user during check-in.
Approval Time: The UTC time of approval of the resource.
Status: Shows the status of the commit, as also seen in the Worklist or My Status views.
Approver Comments: Optional comments added by the Approver during approval process.
If a row selected in the history view is double clicked, it opens the checked-in resource in the decision table editor. This is used as a means of review either by a reviewer, or even by another decision table author.
There are a few context menu options available upon selection of a row:
Compare With Current version: Compares the selected check-in with the one currently in the loaded project. (Note that a decision project is already open with the resource in it.)
Open in Editor: Same operation as double click.
Update: Updates the local resource with the latest version from RMS.
Refresh: Refresh the History view for any check-ins made on the resource after the first time the view was invoked.
Comparing Two Checkin Requests
The history view can also be used as a means of comparing two checkin requests. If two requests (rows in the view) are selected, the context menu provides an option to open the Compare editor. See Comparing Decision Tables.
