Hi all, I'm new to ER BA. My team is modeling business processes and would like to split the work up. However we cannot check out individual models or diagrams within the workspace. When we select Repository -> Check Out Object(s), nothing happens. The object is not checked out. In order to work on the diagram, we need to check out the entire workspace and that means only one person can be working at a time. I tried disconnecting from the repository in an attempt to work locally but the entire workspace still shows checked in and locked. Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?
ebonnett,
For Business Architect, the Repository only allows a single user to access a workspace as per docs here:
Hi Rene, thank you for your response. Yes, I read that only one person can have a workspace checked out at a time but as per the documentation (the second sentence):
Modelers can update or delete model information simultaneously by working with ER/Studio® Business Architect in the normal fashion and by merging their changes into a single model.
How do modelers work simultaneously?
This is an error in the documentation, it will be changed to reflect that one user has access to the workspace at a time. Apologies on the confusion
My team of 3 modelers will face the same issue. Can projects be moved between Workspaces or saved to another Workspace?
