@PowerBI123456 although it would work but here is my advise, why not take all the transformation to the backend rather than doing it in power query.
for example, if you are using an SQL server, create views, have all the column names, data manipulation was done there rather than in PQ. It is the most scalable and best practice approach.
I will ask myself what transformation I'm doing in PQ which I can do in the backend.
