If you would like to revise the texts entered here, you can change them in the Edit revision data dialog.
Overview of the main dialog elements:
This field is provided for a text that can be used to identify the page modification. The revision index can consist of any arbitrary characters. Use [...] to open the Select revision index dialog. There you can select an already assigned revision index and change it if necessary.
If you have specified a numbering scheme in the Settings: Change tracking (numbering of the revision index) dialog, a new value is automatically determined for the revision index from the numbering scheme.
In this field, you can attach a comment to the page modification performed.
This field is provided for the entry of the reasons for modification.
In this field, the user is automatically provided who it is that described the page modification. It cannot be changed.
This field displays the currently active defined working section. The entry cannot be modified.
The date on which the description was entered is automatically written to this field. It cannot be changed.
Generate report when completing pages:
If this check box is selected, the selected report pages such as the table of contents are updated when pages are completed. If generating a report produces a modification to a report page (for example, in the table of contents, in the revision overview, etc.), then this page will be completed with the same revision index, and the "Draft" identification for this page will be removed. The selected report pages are updated even if they are not identified as a 'draft'.
If the check box is deselected then report pages are not updated.
