This dialogue allows you to adjust the save file name and location. Additionally, you can change the Exclusive Distance. Essentially, this export crops the pointcloud to contain all of the point data in the project besides the data located near the modeled objects.

This export will produce an RCP file. From here, simply import it into your deliverable like any other RCP.
