How to Check in and Check out Models and Subsets

A CA Gen encyclopedia is like a traditional encyclopedia in that it is a central repository of information. You can Check in (upload) models or subsets to the Host Encyclopedia or Check out (download) models and subsets to a workstation.

At the Toolset, you view the contents of the model or subset, the piece of the encyclopedia you have checked out, modify it (or leave it as is), and then check the changed (or unchanged) version back into the encyclopedia.
