SITS: XET format for Export not available

What?
Trying to export a STU record but I want to use the XET template I created rather than the pre-installed XML export formats. When I try to export using data format XET, the system has never heard of it.

Why?
To test the XET I created, I want to see what the resulting XML will look like so that my post-staging phase can be developed as it will know what the data and label fields look like.

How?
I had this in my training environment but not in my development environment. I had to create a Data Exchange Format first:
  1. Run the DEF from the menu
  2. Clear and create a new one based on the following:
    Setting up the XET Data Exchange Format
Now you can go and retrieve a student/staff (depending on what data your XET feeds off)
  1. Bring up STU
  2. File > Export...
  3. You should have something similar to the following:
