How to Include the records that have NULL value in one of their fields at Power BI Table Visual?

I had an issue where I imported a SQL server dataset to Power BI Desktop, and I tried to make a Table visual out of three different fields from a table that my dataset has.
Also, my dataset table has some records with a NULL value but when I look at the Power BI visual table that I generated I see that those records deleted automaticaly!
So, how could I stop Power BI from doing that and let it include all the records that my dataset table have and let power BI view it exactly like how it appears in SQL server.
I attached a pic shows the missing records from Power BI table visual versus SQL server dataset table.

Actually, I solved the problem but in different way.

I had click the drop down arrow next to the field that I dropped in values in tables visual and select "Don't Summarize".
It was defaulted to "Sum" instead of "Don't Summarize"

Thanks

Click drop down arrow next to field you dropped in values in tables visual and select "Show Items with no data"
