Introduction
Here are a few tips about checking the report versions in ClinSpark.
The same principals apply to versioning of Dashboard components
User Interface
View the Report in Administration > System Settings > Reports section. If you hover over the black View and Report icons, you will see the MD5 checksums for the respective scripts used to create the report.
In newer releases of ClinSpark you may also verify MD5 checksums for the Script Template where present.
Configuration Report
This information is also visible in the exportable Configuration Report, which you may generate in Administration > General Settings.
The Reports are the last section in this file. You can find the checksums in the “Report Hashes” column.
Limitations
Where these script-based configuration items are copied manually from one environment to another, there is a small risk that white space and/or other invisible characters (line feeds / carriage returns etc.) may inadvertently be included. This will affect the value of the checksum / hash and therefore it will not be possible to demonstrate maintenance of the configuration state.
Support staff: To reduce the risk of copy / paste errors, consider using Control A / Command A to select all text in a source script field prior to pasting it in a target script field.
