Jump to Date Window
Using this window you can view a previous state of the database—how things looked last week, last year, or whenever. The previous state opens in another instance of VISION.
•Previous states are view-only; you can't make any changes to them.
•You can choose any arbitrary date to go back to, or you can pick from a list of "tagged" dates. A tag is like a book mark.
•Besides returning to a tagged date, you can also create new tags in this window, as well as edit existing ones. While you could tag any date-time you want, tags are intended for marking meaningful times, such as when a project or portion thereof reaches a meaningful workflow state, for example.
•Tags can have titles and descriptions to explain what database state they signify.
Quick Jump
View past states of the database in another instance of VISION. Or tag the current or past states for easy return to them in the future.
•Date: Select the date to go back to. You can specify a date by either typing it in or selecting it from the calendar control, which is opened by the down button.
oAlternately, you can select a tagged date to jump to from the list below.
oAny future date will merely show the present state of the database.
•Time: Finish your date selection (at left) by specifying a time of day on that date. To choose a time, first click on the parts of the time—hours, minutes, AM/PM—and then type over them or use the tiny up/down arrow keys at right.
•Quick Jump Date/Time Button: Click to open another instance of VISION that shows the same database as it looked on the date and time selected above.
