Organizational Credential Change - Dataset Refresh Error

Like most companies, we have to change our PW credentials periodically.  After PW change, the dataflow we use to host both SQL and Sharepoint tables will refresh fine; however, the datasets that pull from the dataflow throw an error, with the error referencing a table from the dataflow as the ExceptionCulprit.  Several different datasets all throw the same error, each referencing a different table in the DF (both a SQL table and a Sharepoint table).  Any ideas how to overcome this?

    Solution:  Go into the dataflow PQ, add new source -> SQL, update credentials there.  Then go to Manage Connections and Gateways -> Dataflow -> Settings, update credentials there.  Do the same for the web sources that feed the DF.  

     

    These are the steps I took, the first one seems redundant, but it's what worked for me.
