Compare versions

Whenever a published review has more than one version, you can compare two versions.

Important considerations

  • If you want to make other fields visible in the review, an organization administrator can configure item type views for Reading View or Single Item View to show those fields.

  • Typically, item fields contain fewer than 10,000 characters (2,000 words). When you compare review versions, the applications might skip fields with lengthy content.

  • The date and version a comment was added appears in the comment.
