How to Release Documents from Quick Change Status

When you first migrate a document into the vault, it is automatically placed in Quick Change status, which means that the document is checked out to you and nobody else can modify that document while it is in Quick Change Status.

The status is indicated by several symbols, located to the left of the document name. Examples are shown → .

Releasing Documents

To Release a document from Quick Change,

• Select your document or documents and then right click.
• In the drop down menu go to Document Workflow → Release Quick Change

A Release Quick Change dialog box will open up.

You can leave it blank or you can add a comment. Comments are useful for reviewing revisions.

Note: if you are releasing multiple documents the same comment will apply to all documents.

Once you click okay on the comment box, the document will be released from Quick Change status and will no longer have a symbol to the left of it.

The document can now be modified by other vault users.
