File History

Heretto CCMS maintains audit history for each file in the Content Library. Each time a file is closed, Heretto CCMS creates a revision that's saved as part of the file history. You also have the option to commit and save a file yourself, creating a revision in the file's history. Use the History tab in the Resource Drawer to view the history of a file. At Heretto, we use file history to revert major changes.
