I want to add, if the checked out date is not possible, maybe at least the created and modified date. just to get any context to the file.

The checked out documents report is great, but would it be possible to add dates such as last checked out and created/upload?

Thanks.

Hi!

I just recently started using ShareGate and I'm quite impressed with the functionalities.

A very usefull thing would however be if the "Checked out documents report" included the time it was checked out. Since it's not readily available as a metadata field I don't know if you would even be able to add it?

It would be very useful in the Checked out documents report to see *when* the document was checked out.

Rationale: if it is a recent checkout then I check with the user to make sure they don't have pending unsaved changes. If it's and older checkout then I will check them in myself before migration.

Thanks!

This would be a fantastic add. I do get requests for this information. Especially when migrating to SPOnline, why take the documents if no one cares that it has been checked out for 2 years.

Hello,

Although I can run a report to find Checked out files I can't seem to extract the actual "checked out date". The modified date is often similar but this can't be guranteed.

I'm trying to find and discard all checkouts that are over a certain age.

So my suggestion is to add "Checked-out date" to the reporting columns if that is possible without using the server extension.

Matt

Hi Sharegate

maybe it is a good idea to have an option to have extra columns to be displayed when doing the checked out documents reports, f.ex. it would be nice to see the date when the document was uploaded, this would help me decide if i have to force check in the document(f.ex. if it was uploaded in 2017).

Agree, one of the challenges with the Modern Pages is that contributors have a bad habit of Editing the page but not Publishing the change. Thus leaving the pages in a limbo state, requiring either to waste time contact them, or override the check out. Would be great to get a report weekly to be able document, and educate folks about this issue.

I have found one of my most common issues is content such as a Site Page or a document being open for editing past 30 days by a user....so others are locked out. This is very challenging for Site Pages as folks cannot modify them, and it requires an Owner to Override.
