- Locate the Destination schema entry and copy the schema retrieved in Create a Destination.
Configure the Incremental Replication to make sure the Replicate Interval and Replicate Interval Unit are set so the resulting period is equal or larger than the extraction period. For example, if you want to extract data for a period of a year, the Replicate Interval and Replicate Interval Unit must reflect at least a year period.
Go to the Advanced tab in the Settings panel and edit the Replicate Options. Enable Drop Table to prevent the data to be appended to the table.
Save your changes.
