About the No items to unlock message

The "No items to unlock" message appears for the items that are locked by you in the same session. For example, you have an article opened on the Articles main tab. It appears on the Locks listing, but when you attempt to unlock it, it displays the "No items to unlock" message. This may mean that the item is locked by you. Attempt to exit Ted4 or Fred4 and then look back to the Locks main tab. If the locked item is still there and it won't unlock, report the problem to the Support Desk.
