You can select Load on the selected tables, which brings all the tables into Power BI Desktop, or you can select Transform Data to edit the query, which opens the Power Query editor. You can then filter and refine the set of data you want to use, and then load that refined set of data into Power BI Desktop.

Limitations and issues

Table relationships might be automatically set by Power BI Desktop when loading the tables and induce errors. Delete all relationships on column 'Status'.
