New data to existing data. Only keep new records/rows. How?
I have transactional data in the form of a financial ledger but if is only available on a monthly basis.
how do I set up Power query to where only the new data is added? If 2,500 records already exist and there are 200 new records, how can I only spend those new records?

Hi PBInonpro
You can use Incremental refresh to achieve this. Here are more details on how to set this up!

I am not sure if this answers the question.
If I have a monthly report and the report today has the same data as the report yesterday, will it only update with the new data? I ask because we add a verified column to the data, and if it is replacing the data this won't work.
if there are 7 transactions so far this month and tomorrow there are 9, i want 1-7 to remain and only append 8-9.
