Unlocking a master document from the master document

To unlock a master document from the master document itself, you don’t need to know from which project copy it was locked. However, you can find out easily with the Show Project Copies command described in Showing master and project copies.

Note    This task is not supported by the Meridian Web Client.

To unlock a master document from the master document itself:

  1. Select the master document to be unlocked.
  2. From the Document menu, select Managed Change (Master/Project Copy), and click Unlock from Folder (Unlock from Project).

The red lock icon next to the master document in the Navigation view will disappear and its Locked property will be set to No indicating that the document has been unlocked.
