Setting the default check-out type

You can set the default check-out type for documents in an object store. If the client application allows the user to specify either collaborative or exclusive check-out, the user's choice overrides the default.

About this task

The default check-out type is used only if the client application does not require that the user specify one of the check-out types. See Versioning actions for information about check-out types.

Procedure

To set the object store default check-out type:

  1. Access the object store properties in the administration console:
    1. In the domain navigation pane, click the object store.
    2. In the object store navigation pane, click the name of the object store (the top-level item).
  2. On the General tab, select Exclusive or Collaborative from the Default checkout type list.
