| Problem: | Is it possible to “reverse” the effects of a Global Change which has already been committed? |
| Fix: | Version 4.1 and earlier do not include an Undo function. Version 5.0 does include an Undo function, but the effects of a Global Change cannot be reversed with this feature. Workaround: 1. If you have XER exports of the projects you changed from before the Global Change was applied, these can be re-imported to the database because Global Change can only affect Activities, Activity Resource Assignments or Project Expenses and all this data is exported with an XER. 2. Alternatively, if your IT Services Department take backups of the database periodically, although it is not usually possible to restore just part of a database, you could restore the database to a test system and then export the affected projects in XER format. |
