Replace value in a column which is using direct query mode

I have a table named system, has a column named process, which has 10,000+ values in it, now i would like to replace values named retail to mobile, using dax calculated column or any other way, Data is fetched via direct query.

    Not much can be done in direct query but try this a new column

     

    if([Process] = "retail" , "Mobile", [Process])

     

    Otherwise do it at the source

  • My suggestion would be to edit the query of the direct query and do something like this:

    SELECT Column1
    , Column2
    , CASE
    WHEN Process = 'Retail' THEN 'mobile'
    ELSE Process END AS Process_Replaced
    , Column3...
    FROM TableName
