Revision History Page on Forms

Do you need a Revision History Page on a Form? I've seen that done, and it seems a waste of paper if you have a one page form, and then the second page is the Revision History Page of that form.

If you use a document control software, there is a information card for that document that tells you what doc #, rev and title it is. There are usually other fields that describe changes made.

Am I correct in assuming this?

You just need a revision history. It can be separate from the form. Yes - Basic content.

I keep a hardcopy of the old rev and the new rev. Changes are highlighted, etc. Then I have a sign-off sheet showing the review and approval. The final form is just a form and nothing else. :bigwave:

For most paper document control systems, I recommend having the document number, document revision, release date, and change order number on the form in the footer. In very small print. This way you have the essential revision control information without wasting space and trees. It also helps during internal audits.

I think this is pretty typical (jmho).
