Title: capability of tracking changes is badly needed
Post by: ydl on April 11, 2005, 12:16:42 pm

Do you guys know how to track changes in EA?

For example, we are making changes for next version product,  Is there any way to track changes? or even just mark the new changes in different color will also help a lot.

Does any one know how to do that?

Thanks

Hi,

there is no simple way of doing that within EA (that I know of). What you can do however is to generate MS Word documentation at, for example, each release of your model, and then do simple tracking of changes between the two Word documents.

Hope this helps!

I remeber vaguely that someone requested a change history. (Once upon a time...)
What I do is the following: I created a profile that gives me requirements/issues/changes with different tags. One of them is called History. Each time someone brings some valueable information I simply paste it into that tag (<YYMMDD> <author> <info>). I'd call this "the Russian Method" - simple and robust ;)
