Merge project with local changes to new version

If you have local changes to a project and then upgrade the associated package, it is necessary to merge those local changes to the new version of the project.

If you have training sets, merge these manually. If you do not backup your training documents before you perform the steps below, the documents are lost when your project is merged.

You can merge local changes to a new version of that project by following these steps:

  1. Open Transformation Designer.
  2. Open your project.
  3. Click on the File menu.
  4. On the File menu, select Merge Local Changes from Previous Version.

    The Choose Version with Local Changes window is displayed.

  5. Select the version to merge and click OK.

    The Select Items to Merge window is displayed.

    All changes to existing items are highlighted in yellow. All new items are highlighted in green. Any items highlighted in red indicate that there is a conflict where two items have the same name. The item is renamed when merged.

  6. Review the highlighted items by hovering over them or clicking the information button.
  7. Select all items to merge and then click OK.

    You can use the Select All button if you are merging all new and modified items.

    The changes are merged to the new version of the project.
