Create Model Version

By this command it is possible to make copies of models, called versions. Together with the data of the model, information like creator, creator group, create time etc. is saved. This information can be listed by the command Data>List>Models with the option "long form" selected.
The only way to use the data in a model version is to copy the data from a model version back to the original model by the command Data>Rollback Model. Doing Data>Rollback Model implies normally that all the model versions succeeding the model version "rollbacked" are deleted. This deletion can be omitted by setting the appropriate option.
Any number of versions may be generated for a model. All new verisons of a model will be a appended to the list of modelVersionIds in the VERSIONS attribute of the model. A modelVersionId is an instance of the entity EDM_MODEL_VERSION in the ExpressDataManager model. This instance contains administrative information about the model version such as name, creation date and ownership.
