I just got off a Live Chat with @masonb12 so I thought I'd update this if anyone else has the same question.

 

In his case, he did not need to read in his master table. He could simply write a new table and insert the records from his other tables into the master.

 

If you did need to update the tables and read in the master you could look into a change detection workflow https://community.safe.com/s/article/change-detection-2
