• Key Concepts: 
  Multiple versioning is a feature of SAP Document Management Services (DMS) that allows users to store multiple versions of a document in the same folder. This feature allows users to keep track of changes made to a document over time, and to easily revert back to an earlier version if needed. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use multiple versioning, users must first enable the feature in the DMS settings. Once enabled, users can create multiple versions of a document by selecting “Save As” from the File menu. The new version will be stored in the same folder as the original document, and will be labeled with a version number. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating multiple versions of a document, it is important to give each version a meaningful name that will help you identify it later. For example, if you are creating a new version of a document called “Sales Report”, you could name it “Sales Report v2” or “Sales Report - Updated”.
