Convert Numeric field on Import

I have a dataset with an inventory of products reported in dozens and I want to convert it to eaches upon import without creating a new column. Can anyone help?

Select your column and then add a "Multiplied Column" step. You will find this in the Transform tab under "Standard" operations. In M code, it looks like this:

 

    #"Multiplied Column" = Table.TransformColumns(#"PreviousStep", {{"Column Name", each List.Product({_, 12}), Int64.Type}})
