Issues
As you go through Designer, there will be occasions where something has been configured incorrectly. These will be shown by the Issues icon 
. These issues, and more will also be shown when you Upload.
If any issues are found, the Issues tab will be opened automatically and a description of each issue will be listed so that you can take corrective action (or you can ignore and proceed if you like):
