@danextian,

I am unable to reproduce your issue in the latest version of Power BI Desktop(2.57.5068.501 ).

What version of Power BI Desktop do you use? Is your synonym unique?

Lydia

Hi @v-yuezhe-msft,

 

I'm using the April 2018 release.

 

By the way, where can I find the complete documentation about Q&A? I found someone via search but they seem incomplete.
