Set Me Free

If your user setting has been set to allow you to free documents, then traditionally you can only free your own checked out documents or the ones that have been exported by you. You can’t free documents that are checked out or exported out by other users. It is only possible if you are a member of the ProjectWise administrator group.

With the release of ProjectWise Select Series 1, there is a new setting in document permission called “Free”. Administrators can decide at a project level, folder or document level which user can have the ability to free documents that are checked out or exported out by other users.

 It is important to note that you don’t need to be part of ProjectWise Administrator group anymore to free documents checked out/exported by other users. It does however as a minimum, require that your user setting has been set to allow you to free documents.
