Technical column names visible to users
"Technical column names visible to users" is one of the governance checks Auditabi runs on a Power BI semantic model. n visible column(s) use SNAKE_CASE or database-style names (NET_SHIP_AMOUNT, SOLD_TO). It is a medium-severity finding: the model still works, but results are wrong in some filter contexts, slow, or fragile under change. Rename in Power Query or the model to readable names (Net shipped amount, Sold-to customer); keep technical names on hidden key columns only.
What is detected
n visible column(s) use SNAKE_CASE or database-style names (NET_SHIP_AMOUNT, SOLD_TO). They show as-is in visuals and slicers.
Why it matters
Severity depends on how many objects are affected.
How to fix it
Rename in Power Query or the model to readable names (Net shipped amount, Sold-to customer); keep technical names on hidden key columns only.
