# BG\_IncrementLoadStatus

**Applies to**  
Platform: Microsoft SQL Server · Snowflake · Databricks · Fabric Lakehouse · Fabric Warehouse · Oracle

`BG_IncrementLoadStatus` marks whether a range that you set for an incremental load with Increment Management Type `User` is pending or loaded. The load uses the pending ranges one by one and sets their status to `done`.

### Objects that carry it

The increment table of a model object that loads incrementally and has [Increment Management Type](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/increment-management-type-model-object?hsLang=en) `User`. Stage, the satellite types except the Record Tracking satellites, PIT, Business PIT, Fact and Mart Fact have the Default Term. With `Auto` the increment table has no such column. Snowflake dbt and Databricks dbt have no increment table. Available since Generator 2.2.

### Data type

- Microsoft SQL Server: `nvarchar(20)`
- Snowflake: `VARCHAR(20)`
- Databricks, Fabric Lakehouse: `string`
- Fabric Warehouse: `varchar(20)`
- Oracle: `VARCHAR2(20)`

### Value

- NULL: the range is pending. Insert new ranges with NULL, or leave the column out of the insert.
- `done`: a load has read the range. The load sets the value in the same transaction in which it stores the rows.

Each load takes one pending range per dataflow set: the one with the lowest [BG\_ID](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/bg_id?hsLang=en). Without a pending range the load reads no rows. An object with [Implementation Type](https://knowledge.bigenius-x.com/implementation-type-model-object?hsLang=en) `Cached`, such as a Stage, is then empty after the load.

It is an internal Default Term: you do not map it and cannot edit it in the model. To load a range again, insert it again as a new row.

### Example

A Stage `load_incremental_user` on Microsoft SQL Server reads `TRANSACTION_TIME`. The source holds four rows, at 10:00 UTC on 2026-01-01, 2026-01-02, 2026-01-03 and 2026-01-04. Before the first load you insert two ranges:

```
INSERT INTO stage.STG_ST_load_incremental_user_Increment
  (BG_LoadTimestamp, BG_DataflowName, BG_DataflowSetName,
   BG_LowerThreshold, BG_UpperThreshold)
VALUES
  (SYSDATETIMEOFFSET(), 'Dataflow1', 'Set1',
   '2026-01-01 10:00:00 +00:00', '2026-01-03 10:00:00 +00:00'),
  (SYSDATETIMEOFFSET(), 'Dataflow1', 'Set1',
   '2026-01-03 10:00:00 +00:00', NULL);
```

The first load uses the range with `BG_ID` 1 and reads the rows of 2026-01-02 and 2026-01-03. The second load uses the range with `BG_ID` 2 and reads the row of 2026-01-04. Afterwards the increment table holds, with times in UTC:

```
BG_ID  BG_LowerThreshold  BG_UpperThreshold  BG_IncrementLoadStatus
1      2026-01-01 10:00   2026-01-03 10:00   done
2      2026-01-03 10:00   NULL               done
```

A third load finds no pending range. It reads no rows, and the Stage table is empty.
