Checking in

Available in: Ribbon > ELO Document.

Use this function to transfer a checked-out document from the In use area back into the Repository area. This means that the document is no longer locked for other users and can be edited by all users with sufficient rights.

After being checked in, the edited document becomes the current working version. The new version number is displayed in square brackets.

1. Select a checked out document in the repository.

2. Click the Check in button.

The Version comment dialog box appears.

3. Enter a version number and a version comment.

4. Click OK.

Here, you can also define that the filed version cannot be deleted. You can also define that the date of the document is updated to the filing date.

Information: You can turn this dialog box off. Disable the Activate version comment dialog box during check-in check box in Configuration > Options.

The document is back in the repository after closing the dialog box.
