Date Revision
This page explains date revision, how it affects date behavior, and how to configure automatic locking of future dates
The system automatically indicates when a date has been revised.

Automatic locking
To prevent unintended changes, automatic locking of revised dates can be enabled in the System Settings.
When enabled, the system will:
Display the revision badge
Automatically lock the date field when a future date is entered
This ensures that revised dates are clearly identifiable and protected from accidental edits (see Figure 2).
Note: Changing this setting only affects dates that are modified after the setting is enabled.

Un-revising a Date
The method for removing the revised status depends on whether automatic locking is enabled.
When the setting is disabled
The only way to un-revise a date is to change it to a past date. Once the date is no longer in the future, the revision indicator will be removed.
When the setting is enabled
Revised dates are locked by default. To remove the revised status:
Click the lock icon to unlock the date.
The date returns to system-calculated behavior
Unlocking the date removes the revision status and allows the system to calculate the date automatically again.
