Circular dependency when sorting by column
- 5 years ago
AdamRobC , As you are using month name in creating the sort column you can not use that as a sort column
Create a column
Month Name 1 =[Month Name]
MaxRelativeMonth = CALCULATE(MAX('Calendar'[RelativeMonth]),FILTER('Calendar','Calendar'[Monthly Reporting Period]="TY" && 'Calendar'[Month Name]='Month Ordering'[Month Name]))
Sort Month Name 1 on the new sort column and use that is the visual. Do rename as per need
Hi AdamRobC
When do you get the circular dependency error, when creating the calc column or when trying to "Sort by"?
Can you show the full table (columns)?
