Change Checkout Status or User

If you determine that you do not want to work on the subset in the state that you received it, it is less costly to override the checkout than to check the subset back in.

To allow multiple users to work on a subset while it is checked out, you can change the checkout userid. This function is also useful if you want to transfer responsibility of a checked out subset from one developer to another.
