Review Tools

How to use the review tools feature

The Review tools feature highlights differences between predefined content and user changes, as well as updates made to the product since the last release. It is designed to make it easy to see what has been added, modified, or removed, both by your team and by Caseware.

 

1. Using review tools

Review Tools are available in document editors, dialogs, and tables. Where enabled, you will see the Review Tools button.

 

 

Clicking this button opens a menu where you can control which changes are highlighted.

 

2. Review tool options

 

The options are:

  • Review tools – Turn all review highlights on or off.

 

Best Practice: Turn off Review tools to improve performance when you are not actively using them.
  • User changes
    • Added content – Highlights sections created by you.
    • Modified predefined content – Highlights predefined sections that were changed by users.
    • Excluded predefined content – Highlights predefined sections that were excluded. When this option is checked, excluded sections are shown; when unchecked, they are hidden.
  • Product changes
    • Added since last release – Highlights new predefined content added by Caseware.
    • Modified since last release – Highlights predefined content that has changed since the last release. You can click the highlight icon to see a text comparison.
    • Deleted since last release – Highlights sections that were removed by Caseware. If a section was excluded, it is removed entirely; if it was included, it is treated as user-inserted content.

 

Each type of change is displayed with a colored bar and icon on the left side of the page, dialog, or table. Hovering over the icon shows a tooltip explaining the type of change.
