Beast Mode add output to input

Simon_King

I am trying to make the output of an ETL the same as the input, the idea is that this runs once a month and adds the month stats to itself, and just build up.

 

However when I set the output to the same as the input it doesn't like it and renames it.

 

How can I have one Dataset which I add data to ?

 

Thanks

It's a behavior of the ETL process. It requires tiles to have the unique names. Even though the names are different it's still treating it as the same dataset. The name of the tile changes but the underlying data set stays the same.

Just make sure the input has the number named after it otherwise if the output has the trailing number it'll cause it to rename the dataset.
