 ====== Concepts ======
-FIXME web.config discussion - Under support and installation
+==== Archive Sessions ====
+Item Writing assigns Registrants to [[session_entry|Sessions]] of [[exam_entry|Exams]].  Over time many Sessions may be created for an Exam.  Each Session will have its own roster of Registrants.  Some clients require that Sessions that identify a grouping of Registrants be removed from the system for confidentiality reasons.  However, it is still required to keep all of the registrant responses, so that aggregated [[stats_item|Item Statistincs]] can be created.
-FIXME discuss archive sessions and impact on calculations
-FIXME discuss track changes
+To handle this, Item Writing has **Archive Sessions**.  When an Exam is created and Archive Session is automatically created for the Exam.  Over time other Sessions will be created for the Exam.  When the User deletes those Sessions, all the Registrants for those Sessions along with their response records are transferred to the Archive Session.  This way the Archive Session preserves all the responses, but removes the confidential grouping information.
 ==== Authentication Modes ====

 In Level 3 Banking, the security is maintained for the Banks at Level 3 in the tree.  The security shared data in the parent bank ([[attachment_entry|Attachment]], [[author_entry|Author]], [[candidate_entry|Candidate]], [[competency_entry|Competency]], [[copyright_entry|Copyright]] and [[reference_entry|Reference]]) is inherited from the Level 3 Banks.  Meaning if a level 3 Bank has **Full** rights, then the shared parent bank at level 2 has **Full** rights.  User rights are managed for the shared parent bank and for the [[item_entry|Item]], [[item_group_entry|Item Group]], [[exam_entry|Exam]] and [[term_entry|Term]] entry tools.

 The Track Changes functionality entirely relies on HTML to show, recognize and manipulate the tracked content. Upon user interaction Track Changes adds and/or modifies the HTML output with additional tags and attributes which represent the actual tracked change.
 ===== Versioning =====
-[[attachment_entry|Attachments]], [[item_entry|Items]] and [[exam_entry|Exams]] can be reversioned.  By default, all new Attachments, Items and Exams are created as **Version** 1 with a **Version 1 ID** value pointing to their ID.  Reversioning an object, creates a copy of that object in the same [[concepts#Banks and Bank Level |Bank]].  The new object has a **Version** = Version + 1 with its **Version 1 ID** still pointing to the original version 1 record.

-Example: Attachment "Eiffel Tower " ID=25, Version=1 is reversioned.  The original Attachment has 25 is Version1ID=25 because it is the first version of the Attachment.  The reversioned record will get the next available Attachment ID automatically generated by the system.  For sake of this example, lets assume it is 201.  So the new Attachment record would by ID=201, Version=2, Version1ID=25.  If the version 2 record is reversioned, then lets assume the next available ID=320, so the new record would be ID=320, Version=3, Version1ID=25.
