Is there away to remove document version option for file?

asked on August 23, 2021 Show version history

We have some areas that work with Excel and Word files in Laserfiche almost daily. We've run into cases where version tracking was enabled on these files and overtime has led to hundreds of versions due to a new version being created each time the file was modified and saved.  It's my understanding once version tracking is enabled there is not away to remove it, so each time the file is modified and saved a new version is created. However, is there away to prevent users from enabling version tracking on particular files? 

 

Thank you in advance,

 

Hannah

I've seen this happen and have added specific warnings about it during training.  The only solution I know (unless you want to block the creation of versions repository wide) is to copy the file to another document, delete the versioned copy and then rename the non-versioned document back.
