Report Builder -Parameter creation name cannot have spaces in it

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 2

I’m working with a semantic model where most of the field names in the underlying data contain spaces — for example, CUSTOMER NUMBER. This semantic model is used as a data source in Report Builder. When I try to create a parameter in Report Builder for a field like CUSTOMER NUMBER, it doesn't allow spaces in the parameter name. However, the semantic model is considered a "golden dataset" and cannot be modified, as it's also being used by an existing dashboard. 

My question is:
Is there a workaround in Report Builder to handle field names with spaces when creating parameters — without having to change the semantic model?

Thanks!
