If you are an admin or proof manager, you can split a proof’s version history at a specific point without deleting any files. This option is available only when the proof has more than one version.

  Split (disconnect) a proof version

  Disconnecting a version does not affect just that single version. It splits the proof into two separate proofs based on version order. 

  Use this option when:

  • A version was added to the wrong proof history
  • You need to separate newer versions from earlier approved or archived versions
  • A version should no longer follow the original review timeline

  This is not a way to delete a version in the middle of a proof.

  Example

  If a proof has multiple versions, for example V1 through V5, and you disconnect V3:

  • Versions V1 and V2 remain linked as the original proof
  • Versions V3, V4, and V5 are moved together into a new proof
  • No versions are deleted
  1. Open the Proof Details page.

  2. Find the version where you want to split the proof history.

  3. Select the context menu (three dots) and choose Disconnect from proof.

  Result

  • The proof history is split at the selected version.

  • Earlier versions remain in the original proof.

  • The selected version and any newer versions form a new proof.

  Move a proof version 

  You can move a proof version to a different proof. The moved version becomes the latest version in its new proof.

  Use this option when:

  • A version was uploaded to the wrong proof
  • A version belongs with a different review history

  This action moves a single version, not an entire version chain.

  1. Open the Proof Details page.

  2. Select the context menu (three dots) and choose Move version.
  3. In the Move version window, select the proof version that you want yours to follow.

  Result

  The selected version is added as the latest version of the chosen proof.
  
   

  FAQ: How do I delete a proof version in the middle of a proof?​

• Disconnecting a version from a proof

   

  There's an easy way if you’re an administrator or a proof manager and want to disconnect a version from a proof set. Open the Proof Details page, select the proof version you wish to disconnect, and click on the “Disconnect version” button under the contextual menu.

  

   

  Changing a previous version of a proof

   

  If you need to replace a proof version with another one, use the Change the previous version feature. To do this, please open the Proof Details page. Click on the “Change the previous version” option located under the contextual menu. Next, select which proof from the list will be placed before the version that you are currently on.

  

  The selected version will become a proof version before the version that was opened in Proof Details mode.
