Cancel Any Asset Checkout or Lock
When a user checks out an asset, generally only that user can check the asset back in
or cancel the checkout. Similarly, if a user manually locks an asset, only that user can
unlock it.
The exception is if the logged in user has administration privileges; in that case, the
user can override the checkout or lock if necessary.
To override a checkout or lock on an asset:
1 Double-click the asset to open its detail window.
2 Click the Locks button to show the Locks pane.
3 Click the Cancel button.
Administrators can click
this button to clear this
lock.
Click Locks to see an
asset’s lock status.
