Best practice for checking out a file

[Former Member]

Hello,

What is the SAP best practice to check out a file? (DTR -> EDit or DTR -> Edit Exclusive?)

What are pros and cons of checking out a file exclusively?

Thanks

Thanks Pascal.

Also, I think if a developer checks out exclusively, makes changes and leaves the company without checking in, the only way is to revert those files in which case all his changes will be gone.

You have them same problem if someone has checked out files in the normal way and leaves the company...

Exclusive is "not done" if you have co-developers... since it prevents them from working on the same file.
