Baselining a model and/or diagrams

General Questions/Discussions
1

We have a requirement for baselining diagrams in a model. We are using VP UML Enterprise Edition v6.2 with Teamwork server. I can’t find any options that would allow us to protect or freeze diagrams or a model. The options I can find are to:

Create a branch in the Teamwork server but there does not seem to be a way to prevent updates to the branch as users are authorised to the project as a whole.

Export the model and load that separately into the Teamwork server and grant read-only permissions to avoid any further updates.

Are there there any other options, any advice gratefully received.

Thanks, James

Hi James,

Thanks for your post. You create a tag for your project to avoid any changes to the project file, but you can still model your project.

You can take a look at the following flash movie and documentation to learn more about creating tag by the Teamwork Server:

If you have any further inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
