Cancel checkout

Updated: 2008-11-14

In Planning Business Modeler, members of the Data Administrator and Modeler roles can check out models, dimensions, and associations from a model site for maintenance purposes. When objects are checked out, other users cannot write data to them and pertinent workflow task queues are frozen.

You can use the Cancel Checkout page of the Planning Administration Console to remove the checked-out status of all objects in a model site. Clicking Force Cancel Checked Out Objects will check in all objects in the selected model site and delete any changes that were made to the objects since they were last saved.

Important

Before you use this feature, advise Planning Business Modeler users to check in the changes that they want to save.

To reset checkout status

  1. In the Application drop-down menu, select the application that contains the checked-out objects. Each model site for the selected application is listed, together with the number of objects in each model site that are checked out.

  2. Click the check box next to each model site that contains objects for which you want to cancel the checked-out status. To select all model sites, select the check box next to the Model Site Name column heading.

  3. Click Force Cancel Checked Out Objects.
