Records - originals/modified - can be added to the Offline Records tray by:

- Checking out a record by using Check Out. See Checking out or extracting electronic documents
- Using the edit function on a record and closing the Content Manager client or Content Manager Desktop client before the document is closed
- Using the edit function and losing the connection to Content Manager while editing the document
- Records that have been checked out but not edited will be marked with a status of Original.

  As soon as they are modified, they will be marked with a status of Modified.

Containers can be added to the Offline Records tray by checking out one or more documents contained in them.
