REVERT (Project Administration)

Allows you to restore a database to a previous session.

This command is similar to the BACKTRACK command. Sessions are defined as the work done between SAVEWORK commands. You can revert to the date or session number required, or, if the required session has been stamped, you can revert to the stamp. The current state of the database will be lost.

Any elements which are claimed out to users or extracts must exist in the backtracked session.

This command has a different effect from BACKTRACK. Instead of truncating the database, a new session is added that is a copy of the required session. This means that unlike BACKTRACK, REVERT can always be reversed.


REVERT PIPE/PIPE to 10:30 Reverts database to the session current at 10:30. REVERT PIPE/PIPE to 31 MAY Reverts database to the session current on 31st May. REVERT PIPE/PIPE to SESS 10 Reverts database to the session 10. REVERT PIPE/PIPE to STAMP /stamp_012 Reverts database PIPE/PIPE to the session that has the stamp /stamp_012.
