Field Description
Export your project now Select this check box to export your project.
Append the current period label to the filename

Select this check box to add the label for the current status date to the filename so you can save multiple files in one location without overwriting the older files.

This is enabled if you select the Export your project now check box.

Note: When you run the Cost Data Export API process and this check box is selected, the label for the current status date is added to the exported filename.
Export file

Click to display the Save As dialog box and specify the location where Cobra will save the DCDE file in DCDE format, or the IPMDAR file in ZIP format . By default, the export filename is the name of the Cobra project that you specify on the Project and Format page.

The export process supports only the DCDE and ZIP formats. If you use a different file extension, Cobra will display an error message.

Note: If there is already an existing export file with the same name, Cobra automatically overwrites it without displaying a confirmation prompt.
Save your configuration Select this check box to save your export configuration. This check box is enabled only if you have permission to create configurations.

When this check box is selected, you can specify the configuration name in the Configuration name field and the description in the Description field.

Configuration name Enter a name of the configuration. If you select a name used by an existing configuration that you own, the existing configuration will be overwritten. If you enter a name similar to an existing shared configuration, you will be prompted to save the configuration as personal, which means it cannot be shared with anyone.

Multiple users can have personal configurations with the same name, but only one of these configurations can be shared with anyone.

Description Enter the description for the configuration.
