Transferring a map check-out

You can transfer the check-out that you placed on a map to another user.

About this task

You might need to use the Transfer check out function in the user interface in various scenarios. For example, a user checks out the map but needs another user to revise and upload it. Another example is when a user checked out and uploaded a revised map. However, that user is not available and needs another user to modify the map.

Users can transfer a map that they checked out to another user. A company administrator (admin) can transfer a map that they checked out and can also transfer the check out of one user to another user in the company.

Important: The Transfer check out function is available after check out until production deployment or submit for manual deployment to production.

Procedure

  1. From the side navigation menu, select Company resources > Mappings. Then, click the Action items menu for the check-out you want to transfer or undo.
  2. To transfer check-out, click the Action items menu, then select Transfer check out.
    The Transfer check out modal is displayed.
  3. In Transfer check out to, type the valid email address of the user to which you want to transfer the check-out.
    This email address must be the one that the user uses to log in to Customer Center (or their IBMid if they switched to B2Bi SaaS Hub).
