Cautionary notes:

If a jobnet flow format definition file contains an item that is not supported by the version of JP1/AJS3 - Print Option you are using, the item name is displayed in red in the Jobnet Flow Format Definition Settings window. If you output a jobnet flow image with the item still in place, a hyphen (-) appears indicating that there is no data for that column. If you use the Delete button to remove the item, you cannot add it again.
When using a jobnet flow format definition file defined in version 07-10 or earlier of JP1/AJS, see annotation #2 below table D-1 in D.1 Product file information for JP1/AJS3 - Print Option, and make the appropriate changes as described in 7.19 Environment Settings window.
If a user without administrator privileges in an environment where UAC (User Account Control) is enabled, specifies a protected folder such as C:\Program Files as the output destination for the jobnet flow format definition file, the file might be redirected and saved to each user's VirtualStore folder.

Files are redirected when the save destination is a folder in one of the following directories:
- system-drive:\Windows
- system-drive:\Program Files
- system-drive:\Program Files (x86) (for 64bit Windows)
The redirected files are stored in the following directories:
- %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Windows
- %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Program Files
- %LocalAppData%\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)
The default value of the %LocalAppData% is system-drive:\Users\OS-user-name\AppData\Local.
If there is no relevant data, or if the unit type is not subject to column output, a blank space, a hyphen (-), or asterisks (***) will be displayed. For unit types that are subject to column output, see the descriptions of the ajsprint command and ajsshow command in the manual JP1/Automatic Job Management System 3 Command Reference.
In the Items list and Selected items list, is prepended with each ajsprint command output item and is prepended with each ajsshow command output item.
In cases where the system is configured to display legends, if you specify the type of unit in the jobnet flow format definition, the unit types in the legend and the data unit types can be related.
