Hi LocNguyen ,
I remember this issue.You must also select the base field so that the _display field is transferred.
In your case it should be the field "new_type".
Source = Cds.Entities("https://ebs1.crm.dynamics.com", null), #"Navigation 1" = Source{[Group = "entities"]}[Data], #"Navigation 2" = #"Navigation 1"{[EntitySetName = "psa_regions"]}[Data], #"Choose columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Navigation 2", {"new_code", "new_type", "new_type_display", "psa_name", "psa_regionid"})Or you can try to use Table.Buffer to avoid query folding.
Source = Cds.Entities("https://ebs1.crm.dynamics.com", null), #"Navigation 1" = Source{[Group = "entities"]}[Data], #"Navigation 2" = Table.Buffer(#"Navigation 1"{[EntitySetName = "psa_regions"]}[Data]), #"Choose columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Navigation 2", {"new_code", "new_type_display", "psa_name", "psa_regionid"})Regards,
