How to change Field References

[frankiekho]

Hi, I am quite new to power BI, i would like to ask:

So i have build the whole workbook with filters and column measures using one similar field "Machine Status".
and then after several months, we got a feedback from HQ that we should use their "Current Machine Status".
how do i change the reference of the field from "machine status" to "current machine status" once and for all? without going through visualization or column measure one by one?

i used to do it in Tableau using replace reference

Hi @frankiekho ,

Based on your question, I think you can change Field References in Power Query. You can use the Reference when you right-clicking on the table.

Of course you can also choose what you want to change in Data and rename it.

If my answer does not solve your doubts, you can provide me with more screenshots and information.
