User Story:

As a portal admin, I would like to restore a previous revision, so I can update my workflow.

Benefits:

• Allow users to keep track of the workflow changes over time;
• Allow users to restore a specific version of the workflow;

DOD:

1. When restoring a previous revision the system creates a new mark on the workflow timeline, so you don't overwrite the previous changes;
   • Consider the versions from a workflow as saved revisions that will be part of the revision history;
2. There will only be one workflow definition, that can be updated/incremented over time;
3. The preview will show the workflow name, description (if there is one) and definition as read only contents, so the user can't edit anything;
   • The user will be able to click on the nodes in order to see it's properties;
4. In Published workflows, when restoring a previous revision, the system will update the workflow automatically – there is no need for the user to click the "Update" button after restoring a revision;
5. In Not Published workflows, when restoring a previous revision, the system will save the workflow automatically – there is no need for the user to click the "Save" button after restoring a revision;
