ProjectWise Web and Drive Help

Freeing Documents

You can free a document you have checked out when you want to undo a check out and discard any local changes you may have made.

Any document that you have checked out to ProjectWise Drive (whether the check out was initiated from ProjectWise Drive or ProjectWise Web) will have the same check out icon in both ProjectWise Drive () and ProjectWise Web (), and you will be able to free from either ProjectWise Drive or ProjectWise Web.

Freeing a checked out document from File Explorer

From the ProjectWise Drive node in File Explorer, right-click the document and select Free. The downward arrow icon changes back to a pencil icon in the Status column, the current local copy is discarded, and the latest copy of the document is again downloaded from ProjectWise to your computer.

Freeing a document that is checked out to ProjectWise Drive, from ProjectWise Web

To free the same document from ProjectWise Web, click the check box next to the checked out document and from the action menu select Check in > Free.
