Step 12 . Export objects to local system.

a) Create new nugget

Run the ZSAPLINK program, create a nugget file and add the required objects(listed above) in it and execute it. Create new nugget , enter a nugget name and execute.

Give the path to save the file, and save.

If SAP GUI security prompts , select “Always allow” from dropdown box.

Now the nugget file is created in the specified path.

The file name is “NUGG_DEMO_NUGG.nugg”. it adds NUGG to the nugget name(DEMO_NUGG).
