# Reverse a Transaction (Master Data Services)
  In [!INCLUDE[ssMDSshort](../includes/ssmdsshort-md.md)], administrators can reverse a transaction when an action needs to be undone. Examples of transactions are attribute value changes, hierarchy moves, or member deletions.  
  
## Prerequisites  
  
-   You must have permission to access the **Version Management** functional area.  
  
-   You must be a model administrator. For more information, see [Administrators (Master Data Services)](administrators-master-data-services.md).  
  
### To reverse a transaction  
  
1.  On the [!INCLUDE[ssMDSmdm](../includes/ssmdsmdm-md.md)] home page, click **Version Management**.  
  
2.  On the menu bar, click **Transactions**.  
  
3.  On the **Transactions** page, from the **Model** list, select a model.  
  
4.  From the **Version** list, select a version.  
  
5.  Click the row in the grid for the transaction you want to reverse.  
  
6.  Click **Reverse Transaction**.  
  
7.  In the confirmation dialog box, click **OK**. Another transaction is added to the grid to record the reversed transaction.
