Answer

To restore the previous document definition version few steps must be done:

• In the exported folder <ProjectName>/Templates/ there should be a similar structure:

In this case, 1.1251.fcdot_ is the previous version that could be restored. Backup the European Invoice.fcdot and rename the file 1.1251.fcdot_ to the European Invoice.fcdot.

To restore the document definition on the server-side there are two ways:

• By using the FCAdminTools /CopyDocumentDefinition to replace the corrupted document definition. More details can be found in the following article: https://help.abbyy.com/en-us/flexicapture/12/admin_guide/copydocumentdefinition.
