Version records track changes to a customized record over time so that administrators
can compare or revert to specific versions later.

Administrators can also transfer versions between instances with Update Sets or team
development.
* **[Version record navigation](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/CcVws4xJEAc7SCWLWGVqzg)**   
  There are a variety of methods for viewing a list of versions for an object.
* **[Versions transferring](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/9nJeJtxeoc1bjHcLO9NoeQ)**   
  Administrators transfer version records between instances by moving customizations with Update Sets or the Team Development application.
* **[Version records](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/v5qOtUoXnVxeft8_W9OTyw)**   
  The Update Versions `[sys_update_version]` table contains records that represent the state of a customizable object at a particular time.
* **[Compare to the current version](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/W8M_6JIH8SvkT0LwLTD_6A)**   
  You can compare a version to the current version for any customizable object that a user has modified, such as a form layout or business rule. You can also compare the local and current pulled version of an object in Team Development. Administrators can suppress versions for specific tables.
* **[Revert a change](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/NQGPyTufcCXMXtY84XleWg)**   
  You can undo changes to a customized record by reverting to an older version.
* **[Suppress versions](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/6CIL7CoqDsrax_BtMa2CXA)**   
  Administrators can configure a table so that it does not track customizations in the Versions `[sys_update_version]` table.
