SUMMARIZE

Hello, 

I'm trying to use Summarize for the first time, and i keep getting an error that says

Semantic error: "multiple values cannot be converted to a scalar value"

 

This is my DAX

And below is the tables I'm working with

Any ideas what could be wrong ? Thanks

What result are you expecting from the countx?  If you want the count by [case type] you need to add that as a column first, then your summary could be simply "count", countrows(new inventory)

I will not give you bad advice, even if you unknowingly ask for it.
