#### Undo the check-out operation

In some cases, you must reverse the check-out operation. This operation is applied to the selected document only, or to the selected object and its linked objects, as specified by the SSA ECM administrator. To maintain data integrity, you can only undo check-out operations if the following conditions apply:

- The Undo Check-Out option is enabled by the SSA ECM administrator.
- The user's authorization level is Designer or higher.
- The status of the document is UNDEFINED.
- This is not the only revision for the document.
- The object is not locked by a business process.
- Any related files are not locked.
- Only the user who performed the initial check-out can perform the undo.

NOTE

If the document has just been checked out, wait for at least one minute before you undo the check-out operation. Performing one operation immediately after the other can produce inconsistent results.

To undo the check-out operation for a document

1. On the Documents page, select the appropriate document.
2. On the Actions menu, click Undo Check-Out.
   The status of the document changes to RELEASED.
