Generally speaking, it's when you move changes "backwards" through the design flow. Normally, you make changes on the schematic, and re-run the netlister to propagate those "forward" to the PCB layout. Some commercial tools allow you to track your changes (swapping pins, etc.) in the layout editor, and send those changes back to the schematic editor (kind of like patch files for source code). -- - Charles Lepple
