OBJ of a simp rep of an assembly gets exported with incorrect coordinate system

Hello.

I am using Creo Parametric 9.0.5.0 to export a simp rep (an assembly) of an assembly to obj format. I activate the required simp rep, then go to File --> Save as, and then change the type to "Wavefront (*.obj)". Export Wavefront dialog box is then opened. With the simp rep active, I click on "All" under the "Groups to export" section and then select the coordinate system that I want as the origin of the generated obj. I then adjust the values under deviation control, and click on "OK". When I open the generated obj file in Creo itself, I see that the origin of the file is in another location, which is different from the one I selected.

Am I missing some step in the export process?

Thank you.
