Solution after committing an incomplete update set

[yuchen zhang]

Hello everyone.
I committed an incomplete update set,but I didn't catch the problem in time and committed other update sets one after another.
So now the best solution is to back out all the update sets and re-release them?

Hi @yuchen zhang ,

If the update set in the source environment has everything:

You can export that update set as XML, and import it into the destination instance via Retrieved Update Sets.

Once you do that, you can preview and commit it.

You will get a "this record has a more recent update" error for all the items that went through with the first update set, You can either ignore these, or accept them all. It shouldn't make any difference since it's the same update you're applying.

If the update set in the source environment doesn't have everything:

You should look in other update sets and the "Default" update set to see where your updates went. Once you find them, you can either:

1. Move them into a new update set and apply them (risky)
2. Add each record that is missing into a new update set manually (time consuming)

Hi,

Yes, It is better to backout the update sets in the descending order.

Please mark this correct!

Alos, note that only "Complete" update set can moved.
