    Hi JC_24

    You'll need to create a new semantic model. You could try these steps (assuming that V1 of the report is in the Service):

    1. Download the PBIX file from the Service (File > Download this file)
    2. Open Power Query (Transform Data)
    3. Select the query that relates to the Excel file you need to change
    4. Change the relevant query step to the new Excel file path/name
    5. Test the changes (should be simple if formats are the same) 
    6. Save the file with a new name ...V2.pbix
    7. Publish to Workspace
