• Connect to the master replica server and do the check out there
This option opens the master file cabinet replica, if it is accessible
over the network. The document is immediately checked out on the
master replica, and a working copy is replicated to your file cabinet
replica.
Note This option is only available from Notes.
5. Do one of the following:
• Click Edit Document to launch the application associated with this
document and modify the document now.
• Click Edit Document Profile to change the document title, type, or
field attribute values.
• Click Edit Security to change the Document Editor, Reader, Editor,
or Manager list for this document, providing you have the access.
• Click Move to Binder to move the document to a different binder.
• Click Return to Library if you want to edit the document later.
6. When you have finished making your changes, check the document
back in.
For more information, see “Checking in a document from Notes” later in
this chapter.
Note If you made changes to a working copy before your check-out
request was processed, you’ll have to wait until you receive the lock to
check it back in. If the document is currently checked out to someone else, if
it has been moved to a different binder, or has been deleted from the master
file cabinet, your request will be rejected. If someone else made changes to
the document before you received the lock, you’ll have to resolve the
conflicts.
For more information, see “Handling a document check-out rejection” and
“Resolving a document check-out conflict” later in this chapter.
Handling a document check-out rejection
If you send a check-out request to the master file replica and the document
you requested is already checked out to someone else (but didn’t show as
being locked because of replication timing), your request is rejected. The
Checkout Rejection Notice, illustrated below, displays.
