'Who's checked out what?'

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Is there an easy way of finding out which users have checked out which files from a given space and its sub-spaces?

Thanks

It is possible to write a template that can do this:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Template_Guide

Template can be applied to a space as a Custom View in the Space Details screen (which means it has the current folder context available to the template). Or they can be executed via URL:
http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/URL_Addressability#TemplateContentServlet

Here is an example template that displays the checked out documents for the current user, it should get you started:

<#– Table of the documents checked out to the current user –>
<#– Shows the Icon and link to the content for the doc, also the size in KB and modified date –>
<#assign query="@cm\\:lockOwner:${person.properties.userName}">
<#assign rowcount=0>
<table>
   <tr style='background-color: #C6D8EB'>
      <td></td>
      <td><b>Name</b></td>
      <td><b>Size</b></td>
      <td><b>Modified Date</b></td>
      <td><b>Location</b></td>
   </tr>
   <#list userhome.childrenByLuceneSearch[query] as child>
      <#if child.isDocument>
         <#if rowcount % 2 = 0><tr><#else><tr style='background-color: #DEE5EC'></#if>
            <td><a href="/alfresco${child.url}" target="new"><img src="/alfresco${child.icon16}" border=0></a></td>
            <td><a href="/alfresco${child.url}" target="new">${child.properties.name}</a></td>
            <td>${(child.size / 1000)?string("0.##")} KB</td>
            <td>${child.properties.modified?datetime}</td>
            <td>${child.displayPath}</td>
         </tr>
         <#assign rowcount=rowcount+1>
      </#if>
   </#list>
</table>
