Incremental load will work on below process.

1.If QVD is not there ,then full load of qvd will be done.

2. If QVD is there, then incremental load logic will work out

for every table we need to add one additional field in the DB level called time stamp(it will tell the last updated time)

based on the time stamp field we can check the file in the QVD, based on time update/new record entry will be done.

Mostly in production level will do only create/update but deletion will not be done.

Hope this is help full to you.

Hi,

As per my understanding you want to know how Incremental Load Done in QV.

First, get the data from the datasorce(Excel, Query, Txt file Etc) and make a QVD of that data.

Then,(If data came daily from Text file)

Data:

A,

B,

C

From TXT file

Concatenate

A,

B,

C

From Data.QVD

Store this file in Data.QVD

By this way you can create a Increamental Load QVD.
