Title
Rescan does not flip to Unreviewed status as expected

Summary

This article documents the designed behavior of the 'Unreviewed' file status changes following a rescan

Synopsis

Once a file has been scanned and has the Reviewed & Analysis Completed status, changing the status from Analysis Completed status to Unanalyzed status and adding lines to the file does not flip the file to 'Unreviewed' status following a rescan.

Discussion

Files will only change to 'Unreviewed' status if one of the options in the 'Workspace Settings -> Rescan Options' tab has been triggered. These options include Digest(Exact) Matches, Copyrights, Licenses. An example of the correct use of this functionality is below:

If you check the Licenses checkbox, it means you want the reviewed status to flip to 'Unreviewed' state if the list of detected License is different in a re-scan. If you added 1 more license to the previously scanned file (by manually editing the file) then perform a re scan, the status will flip to 'Unreviewed' because this change qualifies to flip the status.
