Checkout a Document
Checkout a DocumentChecking out a document locks all the included files so others can't check them out for editing or upload a new, updated versions of any of the files.
When a document is checked out and locked, it can
not be checked out again, so the Checkout 
icon changes to the Checkin 
icon.
Only the user who locked or checked out a document may check in, or unlock without updating, the locked files it contains.
To
unlock a checked out file without checking in a new version, click the
Unlock 
icon.
A locked document or its files may be downloaded.
Documents in ENOVIA contain files. Checking out a Document creates a zip file with all the Document contents and locks all the included files to prevent editing.

Collaboration and Approvals App > Documents
Engineering BOM App > Engineering > My Engineering View > Specifications
Or another document list such as Folder Contents, or the Specifications page of part.
Click the Checkout icon in the Actions
column for the document to check out.
A zip file is created and a window displays for you to save or open the file.
All the files in the selected documents are locked.
