Creating versions of catalog entries

You can create versions of catalog entries. For example, before making any changes to a catalog entry for an event, you might want to create a version. After the event is over, you can restore the created version.

When you create a version, the version is based on the latest changes in the catalog entry. If you modify the catalog entry, the version remains unchanged.
