You have gone too far down... It should be right at the bottom of the record you 
are editing. The button may even just say OK. The tick box for auto-export 
should be right next to it...

Then for one added safety sake, when you are done your changes for that 
day/morning... Use the apply changes button at the very bottom of the screen.
