Processing error: The number is out of range of a decimal value.

Hello

 

I've had a dataset that had been working fine with a Scheduled Refresh. Until recently where I did make some data transformations and published the new file. When I manually publish a version it works fine, but as soon as I set a scheduled refresh it fails and I'm confronted with this error. 

 

Furthermore I cannot even identify the table/ column where the error is located. When refreshing all tables it doesn't show me any errors.

 

Would appreciate some help.

 

Best Regards,

Brennan

I found a solution by editing the query. Go into the table if you can identify it and remove all errors. That helped me run the scheduled refresh.

 

However I haven't been able to isolate the error and correct it, since I am working with a large dataset.

I would appreciate it if therer was a community or network where you could yourself work hands-on in PowerBI and troubleshoot. Please do let me  know if such a group does exist, I would very much like to offer help as well and knowledge share.

Having the same exact issue. Any solution?

I figured out my issue. I had some data that didn't come through right and was showing up as "0". I was later dividing that number so when it tried to divide by 0, it hit an infinite number. Problem solved now. 

Same for me! I just replaced errors with 0 and it was fixed

Mine was caused by the same issue, dividing by 0 and getting infinity.

I am having the same issue. No changes were made but the scheduled refresh is giving that error even though manually it is fine.
