Expression refers to multiple columns error

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to create a calculated table as follows:

 

 CALCULATE(
    SUMMARIZE(
                Feit_Onderhoudsopdracht_communicatie,
                Feit_Onderhoudsopdracht_communicatie[Opdracht_ID],
                Feit_Onderhoudsopdracht_communicatie[Gewijzigde_datum_en_tijd],
                "Datum afspraak",
                FORMAT(Feit_Onderhoudsopdracht_communicatie[Gewijzigde_datum_en_tijd], "DD/MM/YYYY")),
Feit_Onderhoudsopdracht_communicatie[Status] = "Afspraak huurder",
Dim_Onderhoudsopdracht[Status] = "Teruggemeld" || Dim_Onderhoudsopdracht[Status]= "Afgehandeld")
 
I am however getting an error: expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value. What's going wrong with my DAX here?
 
Thanks.

You need to use CALCULATETABLE, not CALCULATE.
