How to check for changes in Model

[JimK]

What is the best way to check to see what are the latest changes to a model?

Since the database does NOT have proper auditing columns on EVERY table you can't do a quick check of which rows have changed since the last time you looked...

You have to save baseline and then compare against it.

You'll need to read up on baselining in the help, before you start so that you set it up according to your specific needs.

Hi Paolo,

Thanks for your reply here also.  I had looked at baselining, and was going to confirm - it is my impression that the saved baseline files are saved to a local (hard disk) file.  In fact, they seem to be saved to my tmp dir.  1) Is there any way to control where they get saved? 2) Does this mean that baselining is done independently by the various users who choose to do so?

Good questions, both this and the other.

And thanks Paolo for answering.

I had no idea!

I thought the actual baselines were held within the Repository (DB) as compressed versions of the files you saw.  I'm not an expert in this area but if you look in the DB you'll see the t_document table holds the baseline(s).

Baselining can be performed by anyone who has appropriate permission.
