Change data source SAP BW Direct Query

Hi all,

 

I have a data source on SAP BW. 
I'm working with both test and production systems. I want to make development on test system and then change the datasource to production system. As i see we can do something with parameters on SQL datasource but i couldn't find anything for SAP BW datasource.

Is it possible and how ?
