See the Advanced SSL topic for more details.
This page provides the following information and options.

When enabled, if a user closes Enterprise Architect then their key will be immediately returned to the keystore. When disabled, closing Enterprise Architect will not be automatically returned, instead the key remains checked out to the user for amount of time defined by the 'Key leases expire after'. Typically the Auto Checkin option would be enabled it users need to work offline for periods of time, otherwise the option should be enabled to make the make most efficient use of shared keys. |
