28.1. Introduction to Checking In / Out Documents
Worldox Professional
You may have employees who travel frequently or meet clients outside of the office, etc. They might want to have documents available on their laptop to work on while they're meeting with the client or they're 30,000 feet in the air but don't want to have to pay for expensive wifi from their airline provider.
They can do this by checking files out. If the file is checked out, users in the office can still view the file and make copies of it, but they can't save over that file. This will prevent you from having one user working on a document from home and another user working on the same document and wondering which document is the "right" one.
Even when you are disconnected from the network, you can still create documents, and view/edit documents that have been checked-out within Worldox.
Worldox Cloud
Worldox Cloud automatically checks documents out to your local workstation upon opening them. If the file is checked out, users in the office can still view the file and make copies of it, but they can't save over that file. This will prevent you from having one user working on a document from home and another user working on the same document and wondering which document is the "right" one.
