 If you use a custom microbatch macro, set a [distinct behavior flag](/reference/global-configs/behavior-changes#custom-microbatch-strategy) in your `dbt_project.yml` to enable batched execution. If you don't have a custom microbatch macro, you don't need to set this flag as dbt will handle microbatching automatically for any model using the [microbatch strategy](#how-microbatch-compares-to-other-incremental-strategies).

 The [`microbatch` incremental strategy](/docs/build/incremental-microbatch) is intended for large time-series datasets. dbt will process the incremental model in multiple queries (or "batches") based on a configured `event_time` column. Depending on the volume and nature of your data, this can be more efficient and resilient than using a single query for adding new data.
