The Universal Rebar Exchange Setup window ( Job Settings )

With the exception of " Default File Location ," the options are named for the nodes in the exported XML file to which they correspond.

Special indicators :

The " OK " button is disabled (grayed out) to indicate a validation error. When all settings are valid, the " OK " button is enabled.
     
Red-colored highlighting identifies an entry that is invalid. For example, certain settings cannot be left blank. You need to change that setting, or you will not be able to close this window using " OK ."
