For Production Reporting and Generic jobs, browse to specify a folder destination for the job output.
The default folder is the folder where the job is located.
In the Job Parameters section, define parameters using an existing job parameters list or create one.
If the job has no run-time variables, the job parameters section is not displayed.
To set personal default job parameters, see Setting Job Parameters.
If you are using default parameters, click Run Job, if not continue with the following steps.
Set values, limits, or define or modify cycles depending upon the type of job you are running.

Job parameters selected when jobs are imported are called Publisher defaults. You can override these Publisher defaults at run time and set your own job parameters. Your jobs run with your Publisher defaults until you change them.
