Revision Control

Reverse Posting & Versioning

Roll a posted drawing back to a previous stable configuration.

What is the reverse posting & versioning?

Reverse posting rolls a published floor plan back to any previous stable revision. When a construction draft turns out to be inaccurate after it has gone live, the facility manager restores the last known good drawing and its space records without waiting for a technician to redraft the file.

The problem it prevents

Once a drawing is posted it feeds occupant requests, printed reports and space reporting. If the posted version is a speculative construction draft, every downstream consumer is now working from geometry that does not exist yet, and pulling it back manually means re-importing the old file and repairing links by hand.

How it works

  • Each posted revision retains its drawing, tiles and linked space records as a restorable set.
  • A rollback republishes that set, so plan, area figures and links revert together.
  • The rollback itself is recorded as a forward revision, so nothing is erased from the audit trail.
  • Downstream CAFM consumers pick up the restored plan on the next sync automatically.

What you get

Maintains business continuity when a newly posted construction draft turns out to be inaccurate.
