Compare files
The File Compare feature is a powerful tool that allows you to comprehensively analyze and identify differences between the contents of two document versions. This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process, ensuring an effective comparison of document versions.
Workspace Selection: Begin by selecting the desired workspace that serves as the current version for the comparison.
Initiate File Compare: Click on the “File Compare” icon located at the top right corner of the interface.
Select Previous Version: Choose the previous version
from the dropdown menu that you want to compare against the current version.
Submission : Click the “Submit” button to initiate the comparison process.
File Compare Window: In the File Compare window, matched section names will be displayed under both the current and previous columns. Manually select the relevant section if there is a change in section names. Use the dropdown to select "None" if the section is not available.
Start Comparison: Confirm your selections and click “OK”
to commence the comparison process.
Verification of Content Changes: Under the File Compare window, individual sections will be listed for verification of content changes. Select the individual sections you want to scrutinize for differences.
Thorough Analysis: Carefully review each section to identify differences between the current and previous versions. Content displayed in red with the strike represents the content present in previous document but not present in the current document, while content in green indicates new content in the current document which was not present earlier in the previous document.
By following these steps, you can perform a detailed and accurate comparison of two document versions using the File Compare feature. This feature aids the user for ensuring data accuracy and understanding the modifications made between different iterations of your documents.
