Hi All,

Based on the sales for a given period, I am trying to calclate the number of clients a sales rep will need to have to attain their sales goal.

I have the following data and can't seem to get the result I need and continuously get the above noted error.

I have a table that has the Sales targets for each role in the department

Role                                2022 Annual Target              2023 Annual Target

Account Rep - Level I              14,000,000.00                       14,500,000.00     

Account Rep -Level II               19,000,000.00                      20,000,000.00

I then have a measure that Calculates the avrerage sale per client per rep

Distinct Client Gross Sales Average =
DIVIDE (
    'DailySales (cds) Measures'[Total Gross Sales Amount],
    'DailySales (cds) Measures'[Clients with Sales trxns in period],
    "null"
)

I am now trying to create a measure that will  divide the target for each rep by the Distinct Client Gross Sales Average to get the a target number of clients.

the measure I have created is 

Clients Needed for Target =
VAR Target =
    CALCULATE ( 'Targets', 'Targets'[2023 Annual Target] )
VAR AverageSale =
    CALCULATE ( [CNM Distinct Client Gross sales Average] )
RETURN
    Target / AverageSale

But it does not work and no matter what I try based on all the info i have come accross on the net I am having no success.

I could really do with some help.

Thanks
