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” button in the upper right corner of the screen. To access version history, select the “History” button to the right of the “Save” button.

The current version appears on top of the right-hand column, while saved versions are displayed below.

You can select a named version and see what changes were made in that version (additions are highlighted in green, while deletions are displayed as red strikethrough).

Please note that only main text section of your case report (including images, tables, and timeline) are saved in the version history (title, file name, and keywords are not saved). 

Use the “Back” button at the top left of the screen to return to editing your case report.
