Locked documents in collaboration

Former Member

I'm trying to organize contents in a C-room, and I cannot move folders because of locked documents. Some of these documents are locked by users who are no longer with the company, so I cannot go back to these users and ask them to check in the documents.

As an admin, is there a way for me to unlock a locked document in a collaboration room? Or delete a locked document?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

There are two ways to unlock such documents:

- with the resource lock report - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/14/a4d14030490b06e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

- as a system principal with unlock permission, see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm

Hope it helps

Hi Detlev,

I tried your suggestion but i'm not having any luck. The report does not show any locked objects and after specifying a super admin role as the principal, I'm stil not able to unlock/delete the locked objects.

Perhaps, I'm missing something or not doing something right?

Regards,

SN

Hi SN,

> I'm missing something or not doing something right?

Probably

But it's hard for me to analyze this remotely...

If you have set yourself as system principal (I'm unsure if this requires a portal restart) and if you are using the AdminExplorer as layout set, then it should not be a problem.

Anyhow, also the report should do the trick...

Best regards
