Basically the locking is the same for all types of objects, except for work packages – unlocking them also means unlocking all underlying items (Tasks, Commissioning Checks) as well.

=== Properties ===
Another possibility is the configuration of the [[SYSCLS_SHOWPROPERTIES]] or [[SYSCLS_SHOWDOCUMENTS]] classifications. This will lead to the displaying of the properties/documents tab as initial view, even if it is empty.

== AR Features ==
The {{UBIK}} client gets its data from the UBIK Content web service and is capable of synchronizing differences between this service and itself.
All data can be worked with offline.
Depending on the [[Sync Mode]] setting, the synchronization will behave differently - either taking care of everything automatically or giving the user full control over which changes are sent ("committed") to the server and which updates are fetched from it.
In case of an error, an Android Notification is shown to gently notify the user what has happened and eventually give hints on how to solve the problem.
=== Updating and Committing ===Sending changed data from the mobile device to the {{UBIK}} server is called "committing". Fetching new data from the server is called "updating".<br/>In {{UBIK}} Android's Action Bar, there are buttons for both actions. Their detail behaviour depends on the current view:* In the Start Menu, the update button acquires basic data like the meta definitions or the infrastructure objects. The commit button opens the Commit Manager.* In the Content Browser, the update button updates the currently viewed object and its children. Similarly, the commit button sends changes for the currently viewed object to the server. When committing an objectin the Content Browser, all its changed child objects are also committed. {{Version/AndroidSince|2.5.2}}* In the Commit Manager, one can select objects to commit or update from a list of all changed objects. === Synchronization Mode ===Depending on the [[Sync Mode]] setting, the synchronization will behave differently - either taking care of everything automatically or giving the user full control over which changes are sent ("committed") to the server and which updates are fetched from it.<br/>There are the following Sync Modes:* Automatic: Handles updates and commits without requiring user input.* Manual Commit: Updates automatically, lets the user decide when to commit changes.* Offline: Doesn't update nor commit anything automatically; except for special situations like the first login in a new environment.
[[Category:Client|UBIK Client Basics]]=== Error Handling ===[[Category:Pages with broken file links|{{UBIK Client Basics]]}} tries to solve problems automatically, for example by retrying failed web requests or updating missing content. In case of an error that couldn't be resolved automatically, an Android Notification is shown to gently notify the user what has happened and eventually give hints on how to solve the problem.
=== Push Service ===The {{UBIK}} [[Push Service (Client)|push service]] is a mechanism used by the clients in order to receive notify a client of updates from , show messages to the user or trigger other events on the serverclient.
