   In case you have selected WebSphere Build, you need to select the AdeptiaSharedLibrary folder in the above step.

6. Select the objects that you want to export. You can either export all the objects, all process flows and their associated objects, or all projects and their associated objects. Click the appropriate radio button. 
   

   If you select the Process Flow Objects radio button in the Select Action screen then skip step 9 to 12. 
    
   If you select the All Objects radio button in the Select Action screen then skip step 7, 8 & 12.

   If you select the Project Objects radio button in the Select Action screen then skip step 7 to 11.

   
   

7. If you have selected multiple groups in the Select Group screen and you select the Process Flow Objects option in this screen, then all objects associated with all Process Flows are exported. It will not allow you to select few process flows. However, if you have selected only one group, then selecting the Process Flow Objects option, will display a list of process flows (see Figure 12).

   
    

   Figure 12: Select Process Flows

8. This list includes all the process flows of the selected group. Select the checkbox against the process flow that you want to export.

9. If you select the All Objects radio button in Select Action screen, the Select Services screen is displayed (see Figure 13). On the Select Services screen you can select all services or only the required services to export. 

   
   Figure 13: Select Service

10. To select all services, click the Select All button. To select the individual services select the checkbox against the required services.

    Some service names have changed across the version and because of that some service may be shown multiple times with different names. Following table shows those services and their name.
     
    When you export a project then, the export file does not include the activities outside of the project even if you are using it in the process flow of that project. You need to explicitly export all the dependent activities separately.
11. On the Select Filtering Criteria screen, select the filter column, comparison criteria, and comparison value in the Specify filter criteria, Specify comparison criteria, and Specify comparison value ields respectively.
    

    
    Figure 14: Select Filtering Criteria

    If in the Specify comparison criteria drop-down list, you select the < list item then the wizard will include all the objects in the export file that are less than the date specified in the Specify comparison value field.
    If in the Specify comparison criteria drop-down list, you select the > list item then the wizard will include all the objects in the export file that are greater than the date specified in the Specify comparison value field.
