What is the purpose of vulnerability check in and check out? I just saw that there is an option to check in and check out the reported vulnerabilities in triage flaws.

Hi @NOcius720147 (Community Member),
We use the check-in/out mechanism to block other users from taking out actions on a flaw whilst it is being worked on by another user. This is to prevent action collisions and to ensure a clear audit trail of actions taken on a per-flaw basis. The process of checking out, mitigating and checking in flaws is documented in the Help Centre here: https://help.veracode.com/reader/DGHxSJy3Gn3gtuSIN2jkRQ/~p4MSKOS8F8X8h0KwFTKoQ.
Thanks,
Anthony Fielding
