Asset Manager Descriptions

I am trying to figure out how to utilize the Asset Management excel spreadsheet in order to export features in ORD as shapefiles. I go to the blank sheet within the main Asset Management, but I am only able to select the default ones (Stop Sign, Guardrail, etc) when I load the spreadsheet in ORD. Also, the drop down menus are all options that have to do with stop signs and can't be changed. How is this spreadsheet supposed to be used in order to export features with the right attributes? I've tried Googling everything, but no luck. Why is there not an easier way to export data straight to a shapefile under the File tab?

I am working with parcel and ROW information currently, if that is needed for better understanding. Trying to export ORD parcel info into GIS.  

Thanks.
