Check-In and Check-Out Feature

Check-in and check-out control for documents.

Check-in and check-out procedures allow users to collaborate on documents and make individual changes with confidence that everybody's changes will not be overwritten or deleted. It allows many people to work on and edit the same document, at different times, in an organized manner without the need to copy-and-paste or email changes. As documents are checked-back in, versioning automatically captures the latest file version, while retraining previous versions. Users can view the status of documents, and know if a document is currently being worked on or available for editing.
