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.

@evano_oruvan , Just noticed @JorgePinho , already answered this. Check this update only if his update does not resolve the issue.

 

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
