All of a sudden i got these errors in my dataflow and i cant find any help. They state that the step will be evaluated outside the data source. Any suggestions?

Those aren't errors.  It is just showing you which steps will be "folded" back to the source and which ones can't do that.  If your query refreshes well, there is no problem.
