Extracting PPB as XML
An XML export of your Process Portal B database is very useful for Building in PPB graphics as it will contain some tags unavailable in other exports. Furthermore can restore PPB in full from a clean slate (and thus may be a useful backup to have around even apart from using it with DBDOC).
- Open the Import Export Configuration Wizard, which should be available in ABB Industrial IT → Operate IT Process Portal → Configuration → Import Export Configuration Wizard.
- Simply follow the titular wizard.
