Provide a Valid Export File Location to Proceed With This Action

If you are setting up an Event Manager export event, then after you successfully browse to a remote network location, you may see this error displayed: Provide a valid export file location to proceed with this action.

Root Cause:

If you can confirm the remote network location can be accessed by your Windows user, and your Windows user can successfully create a file in the location of the name you provided for the event's export file name, then this may be an issue in Fusion Servicing Director.

Workaround:

  1. Have your local IT or System Administrator use the Windows procedures to map a network drive for the remote network location.  
  2. Set up the export event criteria using the mapped drive location instead of browsing directly to the remote location. 
Note: Events using a mapped network drive location cannot be run "unattended", where you have some scheduling software run the Event Manager application without any user present.
