Post Version (Data Management Tools)

Summary

Posts a version.

Posting is the process of applying the current edit session to the reconciled target version during version geodatabase editing. Before a version can be posted, it must be reconciled with a target version and all conflicts must be resolved.

Legacy:

This is a deprecated tool. The Reconcile Versions tool should be used to post versions following a reconcile.

Usage

Posting synchronizes the edit version with the reconciled version and saves the data.
Posting can't be undone since you are applying changes to a version that you are not currently editing.
If the reconciled version is modified between reconciling and posting, you will be notified to reconcile again before posting.
