Configuring when to go to the next step
When a 2 steps are added in parallel we need to decide when and how to exit that stage to move on the next step(s) in the workflow

- This will let you configure when to move to the next step and will provide you with 2 configurable options
All steps are finished = with this setting - all steps in parallel in a workflow stage need to be completed/finished before moving to the next stage of the workflow
Any step is finished = with this setting - as soon as any of the of the steps in the parallel stage are finished the workflow will move to the next stage/step
Different configuration options
