Check in dialog box

How do I open the Check in dialog box?
  1. Select
    View > Archive
    , or click the
    Archive
     button.
  2. In the asset tree, select the asset or file to check in.
  3. Click the
    Check In
     button.
    TIP:
    You can also right-click an asset or file in the asset tree (or a file on the
    Archive
    tab if you select an asset in the asset tree) and select
    Check In
    .
Use the
Check in
 dialog box to return a file or binder from your current working folder to the Archive database. Checking in a file or binder saves a new version so that changes are backed up and protected.
The binder filters affect what gets checked in.
When a binder is checked in, the files in the binder are checked against the filters (which are set in the binder's properties). This means that new files that have been added to the binder while it was checked out get added to the checked in binder only if they meet the filter criteria for inclusion.
For example, suppose a file was included, the binder was checked out, and then the filter was changed in a way that would exclude that file. When the binder is checked in, the excluded file would not be in the latest version. The file would still be in earlier versions of the binder in Archive.
In another scenario, suppose a file was added to the binder (in the working folder of the binder on the user's computer) while it was checked out, on check-in the file would be in the new binder version if the filters were set up to include it.
Also, if you check a binder out, change the filter, and then undo the checkout, the binder content AND the filter would be as they were before the check-out.
