Run Configuration	The transformation can run in different types of environment configurations.

Clear results rows before execution	Makes sure the results rows are cleared before the transformation starts.
Clear results files before execution	Makes sure the results files are cleared before the transformation starts.
Wait for remote transformation to finish	If you selected Server as your environment type, choose this option to block the job until the transformation runs on the server.
Follow local abort to remote transformation	If you selected Server as your environment type, choose this option to send the local abort signal remotely.
