Use SQL Store Procedure in Power BI

I have created a basic stored procedure without parameters in SQL Server, when I use the store procedure in Power Bi Desktop the return is ok in design but when I click on Save and Close in datasource edit the Power Bi gives me an errormessage like below, I'm trying to use this procedure as Direct Query.

 

Microsoft SQL: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'EXECUTE'. Incorrect syntax near ')'.

 

I tried to change the statement but I got nothing.

 

The sql statement to execute the procedure is:

EXECUTE [Person].[SelectpersonByType]

 

I'm using the AdventureWorks database sample from Microsoft and my procedure statement is:

CREATE PROCEDURE [Person].[SelectpersonByType]
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;

-- Insert statements for procedure here
select * from Person.Person
END

 

My customer is testing Power BI and are facing the same error, thanks in advanced.
