Force Check-in

An Administrator or someone who has been granted permissions may need to force release an object that is still checked out to another user, or the same user but in a different session. Please first confirm the user is not actively working in the object, to avoid causing a loss of unsaved work.

To perform force check-in, you should have the following permission allowed:

Application Permissions > Report Object Management > Manage Report Object Checkin/Checkout

To force the check-in of an object:

  1. In CDM, navigate to File > Administration > Security > Checked Out Report Objects.
  2. In the work area, select the desired object, then click Home > Undo Checkout.

    Undo Checkout of an Object

  3. A confirmation message appears. Click Yes to complete the force check-in.
