I think, you get this message when the component is already checked-out and present in your package list...

Cheers,

hi buddy first you have to check-out component to your package, then only you should go for the next step staging . with out check out if the program exists in the base you will get check-out enforced error.

for programs/jcl's not present in the base line you can stage directly with out check-out this is for addl info.

hope your doubt is cleared

Hi,
Many have confusion with the word Check Out. Some say
"I should really check in when I modify a program. why check out word is used instead"?
But this Checkout word is with respect to ChangeMan.
Eg: After your stay in a Hotel, u check out (meaning - settle the bills and vacate).
Likewise, in Change Man, when the program is already existing, first u need to check out from the baseline. Modify ur program and after successful testing, we check in the program with the modified code. For Checking IN, there are few steps which u might know.

Hope the expalanation is useful.
Thanks.

For synch8! error you need to recompile the components for which you are getting synch8. The list of components can be found from the Audit report.
