Version history

CARE-writer allows you to save versions of your case report. This way, co-authors can see what updates have been made by their collaborators and can restore the case report to a previous version if needed. Your work is generally saved automatically as you edit, but it’s a good practice to save versions periodically to ensure that no work is lost due to internet connectivity issues. 

To save a version of your case report, select the “Save Version” button in the upper right corner of the screen. Enter a name for this version (or use the default that is generated based on the date and time), then click “Save”.

To access version history, select “Versions” from the menu at the middle of the top of the page. You can compare changes between two versions by clicking the “Compare Versions” button in the upper right. Then click “Select A” on one version and “Select B” on another version to see the differences (additions are highlighted in green, while deletions are displayed as red strikethrough).
