I have this excel sheet where there are 5 sheets like items, order, purchase order etc.
Now when i connected to power bi, i only selected items and clicked on load button. But now i want to go back and select orders sheet also. How do i do it ?? And also I have this region field and i want to convert the datatype to geographical field. Like the way you can do it in tableau. How do i do that too ?
I cannot find option of editing my dataset. I am very new to power bi. Please help.

To set a geographical field, you can change Data Category as Country/Region:
