1. Create JobStatuses table using the 'Enter Data' option in desktop app and follow that through
2. Follow instructions in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-create-and-manage-relationships to create a many to 1 relationship (I'm guessing the JobStatuses table just gives an alternate, worded value to JobStatus that is switched to)
3. Replace instances of JobStatus with JobStatusDesc
Again, I really appreciate the help, this seems easier than expected.
Yes, that should be all you need to do.
