    Hi Narukkp ,

     

    For the existing record, the refresh process will update it, not delete it and add a new record at the end of the table.

But for me its appending one more record at the end instead of updating the existing record.

scenario : I'm using SQL server and set incremental on abc table ( one month History load and 1 week incremental)

                Updated one record in source before refresh run.

                one record is appended to dataset after refresh don.

 

Please make it as solution is it seems to be.

Thank you,
