Home > Collaboration Procedures and Reference > Manage Repository Items
Only one user can have an item checked out at a time. When a repository item is checked out, others can view it, but no one else can modify it.
When you check out an item, iGrafx extracts it from the repository and places a copy in a working folder on your local drive (the working folder is controlled by the Repositories menu Options command; see Repository Options dialog box). When you make changes to a document, you are working with this copy of the item.
