Hi thank your help.

I need to schedule the task in QMC, so every time I run its appending the existing records and the count is increasing.

could you please try to look into the same.

Open up the QMC and go to the 'Task' tab to schedule the app, according to the scheduled time.

Creating reload tasks ‒ Qlik Sense

You need first to import the app in the 'App' tab.

Yes I know how to create the task in QMC.

But issue is that using your code if I am reloading with out appending new records or delete existing records.

the total count of records are getting increased.

Sorry Sasi but i didn't understand what happened.

The test i'm doing here is appending the new lines to the QVD with the new reloadtime.

Can you explain it better?

Without appending new records can please try to reload the app.
