In order to add a new job to this station, click on the “Add new job” button on the upper left handside of the screen:

A new window will open up, displaying all the settings you need to make for a job:

For the example given above, please choose “attributes”. The root node defines what tree or sub tree from the PIM View tree will be synchronized. Select a synchronization method and save your job.

Save your job.
