Replace a data table with another and keep visuals and in query measures

[NadiaLR1234]

I use SQL View Query Datasets (Import option) and would like to know if there is a way to AFTER I have built a whole report with multiple visuals, in query measures / calculated columns to just replace the data table with another one (all headings are the same) basically just save as another report and replace with another sql view datatable and keep all the visuals/measures/calculated columns in tact ?

Also why is the size of the datasets such an issue ?? Is there a way to have unlimited import size on a dataset ?? Or how can I have huge datasets (without hassles

If you go into transform data, click the current table you can swap the M code in the advanced editor. Provided columns are the same visuals should maintain.

Dataset size refers to the size after it is in vertipac which has amazing compression. The whole thing however is loaded into memory at that point so the bigger it is the more resource it uses. If you're using a star schema power bi can handle vast data sets.
