Just launching transports using SAP transport management system does not automatically allow such rollbacks. Today, what transport types do you distinguish and how do you organize deployment for them? Rollback scenarios need to be setup for different transport types. E.g. it makes sense to implement a procedure to properly reactivate the previous version for workbench objects. This is the reason for companies to implement tool supported SAP transport management procedures as described in this blog that allow consistent and safe rollouts and rollbacks for all transports. How sophisticated such a transport management environment is depends a lot on the complexity your SAP landscape and SAP system and on the frequency and complexity of your transports.
