# How to View and Restore Progress Note Version History

Open version history on an unsigned note, preview a prior save, and restore it.
        Published May 19, 2025  ·  Updated August 29, 2026
Nextvisit saves version history automatically.

On an unsigned note, click **Change History** (clock-arrow icon). The **Version History** panel opens. Preview a prior save, then click **Restore Version**.

A signed note shows **Note Signed**. Change History and Edit are hidden. Click **Unsign**, then restore. Submitted insurance claims that are not drafts hide **Unsign**. The product shows: `Cannot unsign when submitted claims are present`.

## Accessing version history

 1. Open the progress note you want to review
 1. Click **Change History**
 1. The **Version History** panel opens

## What the panel shows

 - Each version is listed with the date and exact time it was saved
 - The most recent version is marked “Latest”
 - Click any version to preview its content
 - **Restore Version** applies to the version you selected

## Restoring a previous version

 1. Browse the versions listed in the panel
 1. Click a version to preview it
 1. Click **“Restore Version”** at the bottom of the panel
 1. Confirm, or click **“Cancel”** to go back

Restoring replaces the current note text. The restored version becomes the new latest. All prior versions stay in the list.
