Sitemap in SEO Helper doesn't seem ot create a sitemap.xml file

Although I got SEO Helper a long time ago, I've only recently started to use it. Today I noticed that it doesn't create a file named sitemap.xml. It creates the file containing the info needed but which resides within the folder for the page it's added to.

I understand that search engines need a sitemap.xml file in the directory's root.

Am I missing a setting within the sitemap stacks, or do I misunderstand how search engines work?

Thanks.
