How do I execute a stored procedure in a SQL Agent job?

I am using SQL Server 2008 and I need to run a SQL Job from SQL Server Agent. I am new to SQL Server Job and I want to execute a stored procedure regularly from a SQL Server Job. But I did not find where to specify the executed stored procedure other than copy & paste SQL commands.

Here is my screen snapshot:

Any ideas how to assign stored procedure to execute in SQL Server Job?

You just need to add this line to the window there:

exec (your stored proc name) (and possibly add parameters)

What is your stored proc called, and what parameters does it expect?

As Marc says, you run it exactly like you would from the command line. See Creating SQL Server Agent Jobs on MSDN.
