Working offline with files that are checked out
If you are working with a SDL Trados GroupShare project and you know in advance that you will work offline, SDL recommends that you first check out the files that you plan to edit so that no other users can modify them on the SDL Trados GroupShare server.
Before you begin
You can only check out files from a SDL Trados GroupShare project if you are member of a SDL Trados GroupShare role that has the Check Out My Project Files or the Check Out Any Project Files permission.
Procedure
- Connect to the SDL Trados GroupShare server.
- Go to the Files view, right-click the file you want to work, and then select Check out, from the context menu.
- When disconnected from the SDL Trados GroupShare server, edit or run batch processes on the file.
- When connected to the again to the SDL Trados GroupShare server, go to the Files view, right-click the file and select Check in, from the context menu.
