Register Version

Feature Description

To use version management functionality, you must first register the version of the dataset, a process known as versioning. The registration of a version must meet the following conditions:

  • Datasets in PostGIS and Yukon database datasources.
  • Dataset types include points, lines, polygons, text, attribute tables, and CAD.
  • Datasets in PostGIS database datasources must not have transactional locks.
  • The database user must be either a superuser or a regular user who owns the dataset.

Once a version is successfully registered, a blue label will appear on the dataset icon. For example, the icon of a versioned polygon dataset would be: . Editing non-versioned data is equivalent to a standard database short-term transaction, and is not subject to version control.

Register Version is available in SuperMap iDesktopX 11i (2023) and later versions.
