=Configuration - Essentials=<br />==How Versioning Works==<br />'''Versioning '''works by first capturing all of the underlying fields that make up an application or form - this total set of fields is the '''"baseline." '''The baseline set of fields contains all of the fields in all application and form versions. The first step in using '''Versioning '''is to create a new "version" - this process includes giving that version a '''Name, Description, '''selecting the '''Application Name '''and '''Entity '''that contains the field-set, and taking a '''Snapshot '''of the field-set which creates the '''baseline. '''
Follow the steps below to create the baseline.
==Create a New Version==<br />1. Click on the 9-square menu icon on the top right of your page.
:: {{Icon-Menu}} <br />2. Under the heading '''Configuration, '''select '''Global Settings.'''
3. Under the heading '''System Configuration, '''click the hyperlink '''SmartVersioning.'''
:: [[File:Smartversioning.png|800px|border]]<br />Any existing versions that have already been created in your system may be listed here. If you want to edit these, simply click the '''pencil icon '''to the left of each version name.
4. To create a new version, click the '''+ icon '''on the top left.
:: [[File:New smartversion.png|800px|border]]<br />5. The New Version form will be displayed. Fill out the fields of this form.
:: [[File:New version form.png|600px|border]]<br />{| class="wikitable"<br />|-||<br />'''Version ID'''||This will be automatically generated by the system.|<br />>-||<br />'''Name'''||Give your version an appropriate name.|<br />>-||<br />'''Description'''||Provide your version with an appropriate description.|<br />>-||<br />'''Condition'''||Set any conditions based on [[<br />SSLogic]] if applicable.|<br />>}<br />* You must fill out at least the '''Name '''and '''Description '''fields to save a new version. <br />* Naming versions with clear and appropriate titles and descriptions will be of great assistance - clearly name the baseline version so that it is differentiated from the future version. For example, '''Baseline General Application. '''It may be useful to name the application and form versions based on their period name, as well (ex: '''2016 Q1 General Application)'''.
6. When done, click the '''Save '''button.
==Creating a Baseline==<br />Once you have created and '''Saved '''a new version, the page will reload to display the date and time stamp of the creation/modification, the name of the creator/modifier, and the '''Version Objects '''section. Through the '''Version Objects '''section, we will take the snapshot that comprises the baseline field-set for this version.

:: [[File:Smartversion select apps.png|250px|border]]
* '''Note:''' You may want to capture fields-sets from the Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. In this case you will repeat the steps above and create additional '''Version Objects '''lines to capture any additional objects, activities, or transactions.
