Checkout control
Initiate checkout from 'edit' functions as well as from a model list
Core-satellite support
Manage core models and promote change and model objects to satellite models
Model object conversion
Automatically convert condition values and copy model messages to the production or target environment
Versioning and archiving
Maintain development and production model objects with one model, retaining multiple archives of previous model objects

Protect your CA 2E model objects using TURNOVER's granular application access and function controls
Promotion requests
Build promotion requests automatically using checkout references and optionally copy model objects to a secure production model
Fail-safe promotion
Promote your IBM i objects and CA 2E model objects, quickly and easily, using TURNOVER's reliable promotion mechanism
Integrity checking
Avoid 'level checks' by automatically checking the integrity of model objects against their corresponding IBM i objects and sources
Compile pre-processor support
Use the CA 2E compile pre-processor (YBRTPRC) during promotion processing to influence object creation parameters
Recovery and rollback
Automatically recover from unexpected promotion failures, and if necessary, roll back changes after they are installed
Flexible update constraints
Improve control using integrity constraints that restrict model object updates to checkout users only
