About Saving

Citavi automatically saves changes you make as soon as one of the following occurs:

• You switch to a different tab
• You switch to another reference
• You switch to a different workspace
• You add references from an online search or import
• You exit Citavi

Additionally, you can save manually, but this is not necessary in normal use. On the File menu click Save.

Sometimes you may be working a bit longer in a field, such as an Abstract or Quotations field. Citavi will save changes automatically after one minute elapses. You can click the Save button if you want to save before that.
