You could use the Execute Command, to execute a command-line routine that will do whatever you want. Unfortunately, it is a hard-coded value (you can't pass paramters in this style.)

If you are using Oracle, it can be something like:

sqlplus (username/password login) 'truncate table blah blah'

Or use the "Truncate table then insert rows" Update Action directly in your job.
