| Option                                                  | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Run Configuration**                                   | The job can run in different types of configurations. You can run the transformation locally, on the Pentaho Server, or on a slave (remote) server. To set up run configurations, see [Run configurations](/pdia-data-integration/10.2-data-integration/data-integration-perspective-in-the-pdi-client/work-with-jobs/run-your-job/run-configurations-work-with-jobs.md). |
| **Execute every input row**                             | Runs the job once for every input row (looping).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| **Pass the sub jobs and transformations to the server** | If you choose a server-based **Run Configuration**, select to pass the complete job (including referenced sub-jobs and sub-transformations) to the remote server.                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| **Enable monitoring for sub jobs and transformations**  | If you choose a server-based **Run Configuration**, select to monitor the child jobs and transformations when the job runs.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |
| **Wait for remote job to finish**                       | If you choose a server-based **Run Configuration**, select to block the job until the job runs on the server.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
| **Follow local abort to remote job**                    | If you choose a server-based **Run Configuration**, select to send the abort signal remotely.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             |
