Column [customertypecodename] is a numeral that corresponds to the type of customer they are.
Customertypecode
1 = Competitor
3 = Customer
5 = Partner
6 = Influencer
8 = prospect
10 = Supplier
12 = Other
100000000 = Distributor
100000001 = Samples Only Address
100000002 = Prospect – No Good
The (truncated) formula I wrote was:
Customertypecodename = if[CustomerTypeCode]=1 then "Competitor" else if [customerTypeCode]=3 then "Customer" else "Partner"
The code changes to:
= Table.AddColumn(#"Added statecodename", "Customertypecodename", each if[CustomerTypeCode]=1 then "Competitor" else if [customerTypeCode]=3 then "Customer" else "Partner")
But it comes up with an error - "This step results in a query that is not supported in DirectQuery mode". Changing to Import isn't an option, there is waaaaay too much data. The syntax was correct before I saved it, I remember because I was so excited that I got it right first try! Little did she know. Grrrr.

Hi @bilogin,
As parry2k said, directquery mode has limited the usage of the custom columns in query editor.
Perhaps you can try to do these replacements on the database side or add t-sql query in 'advanced option' -> 'SQL statement'.

@bilogin as the error states, you are using direct query connection and you cannot custom columns when using direct query. Read more here
