Members can reserve a file or item until they have time to edit
it. As long as the file or item is reserved, no one else can change
it.
While the file or item is being amended, a copy will remain
within the Room so that other members can view only. At the same
time, the system automatically places a reservation, until the
amendments are finished and the changes have been saved or a
changed version has been uploaded.
If a member tries to edit a file that has been reserved, they
will be prompted to contact either the member that has reserved the
file or the HMRC Business Authorising Officer to release the
reservation.
By using ‘reserved for editing’ a member can be
assured that files or items are correctly version controlled.
