"Relinquish workset" from obsolete user - Revit


Sist endret den: 28. April 2020

Problem:
Worksets are defined by a Owner to control which users can work with which model-parts/Views.

The Owner no longer exists for this Project or is no longer employed with the company.
How can an existing User be made Owner of that workset?


Solution:
The best way to do this is:

  • To set the obsolete Username In Revit.
  • Revit Button
    • Options
    • General-Tab.
    • Instead of the current user provide the name of the obsolete user.
  • Restart Revit
  • Create a new local file from the central file.
  • In the new local file, under 'collaborate' use the "Relinquish All Mine" button.
  • Synchronize with central
  • Change the Username back to the current user and restart Revit.


Note!
The Username may depend on the Autodesk Useraccount used to activate the software. It may change accordingly.
