Direct Query

Hi

I am using a SQL direct query to make visualizations. The query is about 600 lines and right now am using a SQL code – where am bringing in all the order numbers (the reason why I have about a billion rows), in a direct query – can I customize the SQL code? I can use the SQL query to one particular order number, but I need to be able to look for all order numbers, instead of going to the advanced editor and changing the order number, is there any other way I can work on this? If so how?

You could  customize the SQL code when connect to SQL
