Use the Configuration tab options to configure the type of cleansing operations that a mapping will perform on the input data. Each instance that you add identifies one or more input fields to which a mapping can apply the cleanse operations. You add instances to configure different cleansing operations for different input fields within a single asset.
The following image shows the cleanse asset options in the

The Configuration tab includes the following options:
Add Instance option.
Adds a cleanse instance to the asset. You can add one or more cleanse instances.
Define one or more input fields in each instance that you add.
Instance panel.
Displays the cleanse instances that you add to the asset. You can edit or delete an instance.
Expand or collapse the instance panel to show or hide the instances that you add. You might collapse the instance panel when you configure a step in an instance, so that the step configuration options are easier to view.
Add Step option.

Test input fields.
Contains the test data that you enter for the instance that you select.
