Where do I put the Save button?
Right: 'save and exit' button next to the primary button (good). Sometimes users might need to save their progress on a long form. Putting the 'save and exit' button above the primary button implies it's more important, when it isn't.
Should save button be on top or bottom?
Considering that your users will typically navigate to one category, make a change, then click Save Changes, I think placing the button at the bottom/left is best. If your users were frequently making changes across multiple categories, then you'd have a good argument for placing the button at the top.
Should buttons be on left or right?
Are the buttons on your shirt on the left side or on the right? There's actually a pretty easy answer: if you wear women's clothing, the buttons are on the left side of the shirt. However, if you wear men's shirts, the buttons line up on the right side.
What is the use of Save button?
Save Button. Clicking the Save button saves any changes you have made in the data on the current object. Note: Refer to Shortcut Key Summary for information about the alternate shortcut.
