# Check out workflow template

If in an environment, the current workflow template change set is not the latest change set, you can get the latest change set. As a result, the current workflow template change set is replaced with the latest change set.

If you have checked out a workflow template and made changes in the current environment, you can undo these changes by doing **Get latest**. In this case, also the check out of the workflow template is undone.

### Steps

1. Go to **Data entry workflow** > **Design** > **Data entry workflow templates**.
2. In the list, find and select the desired workflow template.
3. On the **Action Pane**, click **General**.
4. Click **Check out**.
5. You can run '**Check out**' in the background. So, while the workflow template is checked out, you can continue with other activities in the environment.

Select **Yes** in the **Run in background** field.
6. Click **OK**.

> **Note**

> If you check out a workflow template and the current change set is not the latest change set, you can choose **Yes** to first get the latest change set.

If you choose **No**, you do not get the latest change set and the workflow template is not checked out.
