Set default checkout type

To set the object store's default checkout type using Enterprise Manager

  1. Right-click the object store's node in the tree view and select Properties.
  2. Select the General tab and under Default Checkout Type select either Collaborative or Exclusive.
  3. Click OK.

If the client application allows the user to specify either Collaborative or Exclusive checkout, then this choice will override the default. The default checkout type is used only if the client application does not require that the user specify one of the checkout types. Note that the default checkout type applies to the entire object store.

See Versioning actions for information about checkout types.
