Problem with count ID / number of rows

Hi, 

 

I have a dataset in power bi that shows +2 rows than the count i have in sql server with the sql view used for the same dataset. 

I narrowed the date / time where I find these 2 extra rows :

I have here 2 IDs only but the last column count 2 per rows for some reason. 

Any idea why ?

Yes, the problem disappears when I remove the incremental refresh 🤔

@plesaulnier ,Based on what I got 

 

is it count or the distinct count? If this a count , it means in power bi has two rows

@amitchandak Hi, that's the issue - it is count but Power BI has only 2 rows 

On the left ID column in my screen shot, I display the 2 existing values

On the right ID column in my screen short, I display the count (not distinct count on purpose)

I just configured the incremental refresh this morning - I wonder if that is not causing any issue...
