titleWorking versions and snapshotssnapshot versions

A working version is an unpublished document that you can view and edit. Working versions are only ever visible to users in one organisation: the organisation of the user that created the document. But access to a particular working version may be restricted further.

For each working version, Lawmaker also stores a series of related snapshot versions. A snapshot version is a read-only, point-in-time snapshot of the working version. Snapshots are created automatically when certain actions are carried or when the user requests that a snapshot be created.

Snapshots are created when you:

  • generate a PDF (the snapshot will be called: 'PDF generated')

  • Download a zip file (the snapshot will be called: 'Downloaded')

  • Duplicate a document (the snapshot will be called: 'Duplicated')

  • Share a document (the snapshot will be called: 'Shared externally')

  • Publish a document (the snapshot will be called: 'Published')

  • Submit a document to TNA (the snapshot will be called: 'Submitted to TNA')

Lawmaker also stores the auto-saved version of any document you are working on as a snapshot.

Each time you save a working version, Lawmaker creates a backup snapshot (overwriting the existing backup) so if the master document gets corrupted in the save process, the backup can be used to restore the document.
