A status message is displayed during editing. When the backup file has been
created, the indicator changes to a green tick:

60 seconds. After the 60 seconds have elapsed, the backup file is deleted.

A file browser window opens.
The suggested file name contains:
°
the content of the file (ArticleBackup)
°
the application name
°
the name of the device from which the backup originates
°
the article name
°
a time stamp (four-digit year, two-digit month, two-digit day, the milliseconds
elapsed since the date change)
If the suggested file name for the backup is not customized, the file will be saved
with the suggested name, e.g.,
ArticleBackup-FOD3-HVS-SIM_Left_Master-Article‐
SurfaceStruct-<YYYYMMDD>_<ms since 0:00>.zip
The file names are therefore always unique, since a simultaneous backup (at the
same millisecond) is not possible.

NOTE
Before confirming, check the article name and
Article external ID
to make sure
that the article you actually want is overwritten.
