The Developer asked if ld be fine with separate table providing the row count, as there is some difficulty providing within original query.
If I am getting seperate queries returning rowcount for tables, any best practices for automating the rowcount check?
Yes.
Not a best practices but you can do that with Power Query. Just replace the Source with your rowcount table. You'll have to count all rows for all tables and then the rowcount table would change according to subsequential data refresh. Check a demo in the pbix attached.
letSource = Table.FromRows({{"Table1",1},{"Table2",2},{"Table3",3}},{"tableName","expectedRowcnt"}),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"tableName", type text}, {"expectedRowcnt", Int64.Type}}),
GetTable1RowCnt = Table.FromRows({{"Table1",Table.RowCount(Table1)}},{"tableName","actualRowcnt"}),
GetTable2RowCnt = Table.FromRows({{"Table2",Table.RowCount(Table2)}},{"tableName","actualRowcnt"}),
GetTable3RowCnt = Table.FromRows({{"Table3",Table.RowCount(Table3)}},{"tableName","actualRowcnt"}),
UninonRowCntTbls = Table.Combine({GetTable1RowCnt,GetTable2RowCnt,GetTable3RowCnt}),
MergeSourceAndUninonRowCntTbls = Table.Join(Source ,"tableName", UninonRowCntTbls ,"tableName")
in
MergeSourceAndUninonRowCntTbls
