| Double-click on Application Release in the Manage tab of the catalog |
| The Application Releases window opens. |
2. | Select a Production Version from the dropdown list. |
3. | Specify an Id for this application release. This can be any number or code, up to 8 characters long. |
| For example: appdata, app47, tours, APPTODAY, 20100427. |
4. | Optionally, specify an Alias. |

<prod version>_<id>.old.xml
| Also, a backup comparison for this application release is generated that compares the current (= most recently exported) release with the previously exported release. |
7. | Optionally, you can specify Release Notes for this release. |
The release is now listed under Application Releases on the Manage tab of the catalog.
