Checking in Object Specifications without Checking in the Object
You can check in an object's specifications without losing your ability to modify the object. This enables you to check in a partially completed object without having to check the object back out to continue development on it.
Access Object Management Workbench - Web.
In the Object grid, select an object.
From the View menu, choose Checkin/Checkout.
Note: The Checkin/Checkout option is not available for external form application objects.
