CAUSE:
This is working as designed.
 
The Bulk Export subscription is a file subscription. All email subscription with Send Now schedule and file subscription with Send Now schedule are delivered immediately and are not saved in metadata.
 
 
ACTION:
This is an expected behavior of the product. Users wishing to save a subscription and execute it on demand should tie the subscription to an event based schedule.
