jchbh, I can tell how I've mapped. 

 

I have local PC and PBI service accounts.

 

You can select 'Effective user names'. You should see your PBI service account in list of users in tab 'Users' below.

Then you put this account name like [email protected] to 'Replace' field and your local PC like [email protected] to 'With' field.

 

Then If you enter your PBI service account one more time into field 'Original name' you can press 'Test rule'  to check if it is correct.

 

Then press 'Ok'

zoloturu ,

how do you get this screen with the "Map user names" button ? Doesn't seem to be there any longer.
