Save rules as: Save ELOas rules created with the ELO Administration Console as extra text to an empty entry or as a text file in the repository.

Save menu as XML file (diskette icon): Click the diskette icon to create the XML file menu.xml, which is stored on the server in the directory ...\config\AdminConsole\<name of instance>\. ELO stores the settings for the menu items of the ELO Administration Console in the menu.xml file. The file can be edited manually and is loaded when you reboot the ELO Administration Console.

Once the XML file has been created, the Delete XML menu file button (X icon) appears. Click the X icon to delete the menu.xml file.
