incremental refresh date column
scabral , Typically we use last update date as an incremental date. The only thing we need to take care the last update date is not null for the new record.

do not use the Detect Data Changes option? Just use LastUpdateDate as the Incremental Refresh Date? It will never be null, it defaults to the insert date the first time.
