Joins are merging two/several tables into one single table - by keep all tables remain within the datamodel:

Hi,

The main difference between KEEP & JOIN is, when you use KEEP your final table is 2 but when you use JOIN your final table is 1.

KEEP :- The keep prefix between two tables, has the effect of reducing one or both table(s) based on intersection, the two tables are not join.

JOIN :- The join prefix joins the loaded table with an existing named table or the last previously created.

Hope this help

Best Regards
