Downloading Documents Outside of Your Working Directory (unmanaged export)
An unmanaged export is when you download copies of documents to some location outside of your working directory. Because an unmanaged export does not lock documents in ProjectWise, other users can still check them out or export them (managed export).

- Select
.
The Document Export Wizard opens.
- Select
Send to Folder and click
Next.

- In the
Export folder field, specify the location to
which you want to download documents.
You can either click Browse to select a local or network folder, or enter the path to that folder in the Export folder field. If the folder you specify does not exist, it will be created upon export.
