I have a LEEDv4 that has upgraded some MR credits to LEEDv4.1 that I would like to put back as LEEDv4. Can you go back once you have upgraded?

When registerinng the project as a v4, you can always go back and forth between v4 and v4.1 on any credit or prerequisite at any time....even after they come out of review.
BUT
if you register the project as a v4.1 you are stuck with only the v4.1 credit paths.
Good Luck!

one last comment, GBCI has asked me to note the issueance of LEED v4.1 credit that i am submitting.
For example, we use the July 2019 v4.1 BD+C for LTc Electric Vehicles since 2% EV charging stations achieve the point rather than 5% as is required in later issueances of v4.1 BD+C. in the credit template i note "July 2019 v4.1 BD+C LTc Electric Vehicle is being substituted".
Good Luck!

David, I have used the credit language that I read here on LEEDuser for the 2 (so far) v4.1 credits that I have substituted. Where do I find the date of issuance on these credits? Also, where would I find other issuances so I can review their language? A quick internet search found the January 2019 issuance, no others.
Thank you!

yeah, I understand your frustration....even USGBC does not keep all issuances of the v4.1 'reference guides' at their fingertips - that i am aware of.
send me an e-mail and i'll bounce back a zip file of all v4.1 BD+C and ID+C reference guides issued thus far. (shout out to Emily Reese Moody from Jacobs for putting this together!)

"date of issuance" is noted on the cover page of the reference guide.

The guide that Denise shared mentions the v4.1 Beta Guide. As far as I know the latest version is April 2021 which someone shared with me. I have not been able to find this document online, so I can't share a link to it.
Does anyone have the link?

You can go to the link: LEED v4.1 | U.S. Green Building Council (usgbc.org), and under Resources you can find the v4.1 Beta Guide.
