In Build Tab --> click on -> Add build step --> select Execute shell --> This will give you a command Box --> Just add the path of your script where you have saved it on your local example : sh /var/tmp/xyz.sh
Please note the script should be on the server where the Jenkins is hosted. FOr executing script on different host/system you need additional settings enabled.
