DAX query - can't save file anymore

Hello,

 

I have a very weird issue with my Power BI report. So today I was working on my fairly new report and after a while I got the error that I could not save the file anymore due to a incorrect file path. Thing is I haven't moved the file. So I tried again. After a while the same error occured. Moving, renaming or "saving as" didn't help. No issues whatsoever. 

 

Now I think I found out what is causing this error. Whenever I run this in the DAX Query editor, I cannot save the file anymore. The DAX Query itself is working nicely with no error whatsoever. Also other DAX Query functions seem to be working. Is this a known issue with the CALCULATETABLE function?

 

 

EVALUATE
    CALCULATETABLE(Studium,
        FILTER(Studium,Studium[Studium_geplante_Uebernahme]="Ja"),
        FILTER(Studium,Studium[KontoFestanstellung]=FALSE()),
        FILTER(Studium, Studium[Studium_voraussichtlicher_Abschluss].[Date]<DATE(YEAR(TODAY())+1,MONTH(TODAY()),DAY(TODAY()))),
        FILTER(Mitarbeiterdaten,Mitarbeiterdaten[Status]<>"inactive")
    )

Hi @PhilippM 

 

Are you unable to save the file when running in the DAX Query view as shown below?

I have not reproduced your problem, when I run the DAX formula about CALCULATETABLE here, I can save the file normally.

 

The following suggestion is for your reference:

 

You can try using Performance Analyzer to see how long the DAX takes to run, and then wait for the DAX to finish running before trying to save the file.

Hey @Anonymous ,

 

apprently the problem fixed itself over the weekend. Just logged back into work, tried it again and it is working normally now. I honestly don't know what this was about

 

Thank you anyway!
