   If the exported Event Process has other Event Processes as dependencies and each of those Event Processes in turn have dependencies then all these Event Processes are exported along with their configurations in a chain manner into a single folder as that of the exported Event Porcess and the dependency chain is saved in a metadata file.
3. Specify the file name and location to save and click OK. The Event Process project along with the dependencies and configurations chosen will be saved as a .zip file.
