Q&A Synonyms for values

Is there a possibility to add Synonyms for data values? 

 

My Q&A is based on data values that change based on the updated data. though some of them remain the same and I want to add synonyms for those data values. I have tried training the Q&A but have not been able to do it. 

 

data value is 'Expense'

synonyms could be an expenditure, spend, outlay ......

Hi, @sjehanzeb ;

This can be done in the Modeling->Q&A Setup in Powerbi Desktop.

first:

In Power BI Desktop, you may update your sharing synonyms settings in the Q&A setup itself or within the Options dialog, under Data Load -> Q&A- > Share your synonyms with everyone in your org:

You can also update this setting in the ‘Dataset settings’ within Power BI Service:

Additionally, administrators may choose to disable Synonym sharing within the Admin Portal by navigating to Tenant settings -> Q&A settings.
