This command can also be executed from the SpecsIntact Explorer's Right-click menu.

The Execute Revisions command is a crucial step to finalize all tracked changes within your project Sections, allowing you to select one or more while keeping other Sections unchanged. When executed, the system will permanently incorporate text marked for addition by <ADD> tagsSpecsIntact relies on tags to control content, and formatting, automate processes, and generate reports. These special markers, like <SEC> and </SEC>, define elements and attributes within the specifications. Some tags, like <Page />, function independently. In essence, tags are the building blocks of SpecsIntact documents and remove text marked for deletion by <DEL> tags. The Execute Revisions command also offers flexibility to apply these changes to a selected Job or Master.
