No, I only want to change the name of the values. For example at the top of your data donut, I would like to change 3/6/2019 to for example "3 juni 2019". If your donut had another value for example; Marital Status. I would like to change the value name of "Married" to "Happly Married.

 

I hope you understand what I mean.

Hi Anonymous ,

So if you mean to go in and individually change one label, there is currently no way to do that.  However those values are coming from a column in your data.  You could create a column that references that column, so that "Married" is read as "Happily Married."

 

If this solves your issues, please mark it as the solution, so that others can find it easily. Kudos are nice too.

    Hi Nathaniel_C 

     

    Thanks for your message. Could  I create a reference column in DirectQuery?

     

    Regards.

      Hi Anonymous ,

      I am not sure. Is there any reason that you are using DirectQuery rather than importing the data? I scanned this doc  https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-use-directquery

      for the difference. You may have to create a new table that you can connect to your existing table. How much data are you working with, and how many changes are you proposing?
