Function: This command opens the dialog “Project Archive” for the configuration of project archives.
Call: Menu bar: “File Project Archive”
An archive file (*.projectarchive) contains all files contained and referenced in the currently opened project. It can either be saved or dispatched as an e-mail attachment. The dispatch by email is very helpful for providing an employee with all project-relevant files. The file can be simply unpacked again with the command “Extract Archive”.
