• Add, remove, or edit attachments and related attributes
• Check in the software build
You can edit a software build using the following methods:
• Select Check Out and Edit from the actions menu of the Folder Contents table.
• Select Check Out and Edit from the right-click actions menu in a table row.
• Select Edit from the right-click actions menu in a table row if you have already checked out the software build.

The Edit window divides the editing of a software build into the following steps. The attribute names and their order in the steps are customized by an administrator.
1. Set Attributes—Attach, replace, or remove primary content for the software build and define descriptive attributes for both the software build and its primary content. See Creating a Software Build for more information.

2. Set Attachments—Add, remove, or edit any attachments meaningful in the context of this software build that would never be checked in or checked out on their own. For more information, access the online help from the Attachments table.
If Save appears, you can click it to save your changes to the working copy of the software build without checking it in. In this case, the Edit window closes and the software build remains checked out.
Alternatively, click Check In. The Check In window opens. You can add comments on the changes made to the software build and keep it checked out.
