    While it is technically possible to run such SQL scripts these are non-deterministic and not at all ACID compliant.  Power Query will run its queries an arbitrary number of times which can result in your query inserting the same data multiple times.
     
    It is not recommended to use Power Query for writing to SQL Server database tables.

    Thanks for the reply.
    So, as we're using Power query more often to clean data; it seems a disservice not being able to also archive data in one fell swoop.
