Revert automation mistakes using Version History

Available on Smokeball Grow and Prosper+

With Smokeball, you can revert to a previous version of a precedent, which is very handy if you make mistakes or override important information and want to get the previously saved version back.

Reverting precedents

  1. Open the relevant matter and access the Precedent Library.

When you open this precedent in the future, it will open with the version that you have selected (displayed with an asterisk).

Reverting document containers

  2. From the Document Containers window, right-click on the container you wish to revert. 
  3. Select Version History. 
  4. Review the previous versions of your container, and once you locate the original that you wish to revert to, right-click it and select Set as current version. 
    • The asterisk (*) indicates the current version of the document container. 
    • If you are unsure which version you are looking for, select View this version before setting it as the current version. 
  5. Select OK.
