Version controlled files provide fast recovery and reduce the cost and risk of downtime. The Change Management add-on for the iFIX product provides version control for your iFIX project files. Change Management with Machine Edition also provides audit trails for tracking changes, security for preventing unauthorized changes, and scheduled backups to ensure you always have the latest files.
If you purchase the Change Management feature for iFIX, Change Management is integrated into your iFIX development environment. To access Change Management functions in the iFIX WorkSpace environment, you use the right-click menu on the WorkSpace system tree, as illustrated in the following figure. Or, in Ribbon view only, you may access project level Change Management functions on the Administration tab, in the Change Management group, in the Manage Project list.
