Hi @user83 ,

 

What is your data source?
Try to convert accented characters into unaccented characters in the data source.

Hi @user83 ,

 

It is really troublesome to use SQL for conversion.

Converting string with accented characters to non-accented equivalent 

Maybe you can try to convert the data set with R in PBI Desktop.

How to convert accented characters to unaccented in R or Power BI
