@lrahav,

In your scenario, first ensure that you specify a valid password for the user in SAP, please review this similar thread for more details.

After you change password, please go to Files->Options and settings->Data sources settings in Power BI Desktop, find your SAP data source, clear permissions, then re-connect to SAP.

Moreover, you can take a look at the following blog about how to connect to SAP BW in Power BI Desktop.
