vSite Admin Portal: Comparing Sheets

In vSite Admin Portal, sheets with the same Sheet ID from different version sets can be compared to easily view the differences between previous and current versions. To compare sheets click on the sheet you want to compare versions of and click the Compare Versions button on at the top right of the page (Fig. 1). 

A popup will appear asking you to select the versions you want to compare. Once the desired sheets are selected, click Compare.

There are 3 different views that can be used to compare sheets.

Composite View

Composite view shows an overlay of both versions, with commonalities shown in black, and the differences shown in red and blue (Fig. 2). At the top of the page, you can see which color represents which sheet, as well as change which sheets are being compared and toggling either sheet on and off from view. 

Side by Side View

Side by Side view shows both sheets in their original colors with a bar between them which can be moved left and right to see the differences between versions (Fig. 3). The sheet version names can be seen at the top left and top right.

Differences View

Differences view is similar to Composite view, however it removes the similarities between versions and only shows the differences between the sheets in red and blue (Fig. 4). This view can be helpful for quickly finding any differences between versions at a glance.

To finish comparing sheets, click End Compare at the top right of the page. This will take you back to the normal sheet view page for the current version of your sheet.
