I would try to test this out yourself, as each case could be slightly different, based on the way user set up.
The way I'd go about is to go to my source file (assume EXCEL) and change one of the entries to 99999999 - something large. Then do your other changes and see if it pulls through to Power Query correctly. If so, change the 9999999 back, otherwise, investigate further.
