Snapshots are a point-in-time picture of a user’s work history and helps them track and preserve both search history and search results. Saved snapshots can easily be restored to see what the contents of a database were on a particular day and what search results were found at that moment in time. Snapshots only store historical data, such as searches, the last record selection, and the last sort performed during a user’s Concordance session.
When a saved snapshot file is restored, Concordance automatically opens the databases associated with the file, with all queries and sorts preserved. These snapshots files can only be restored in the original database they were created in.
Users may also choose to have the Auto-restore feature turned on which is a similar feature to saving a snapshot. This snapshot file contains that last record selection and last record viewed at the end of a Concordance session, so when users next access Concordance they can resume. The Auto-restore feature is enabled by default. The Auto-restore feature settings are defined on the General tab in the Preferences dialog box (Tools > Preferences) in FYI Reviewer.
