Use column in a variable Table

hello guys,

 

i have a problem that is soooo frustrating to me,

whenever i copy a DAX code that uses a variable table, then reference a column of this variable table inside another variable it works so fine for them, but when i tried to use the same syntax, it just doesn't work for me ?!!!!!!!

Driving me crazy !!!!!!!!

what is wrong here ?!!!

 

 
VAR SourceTable = ADDCOLUMNS ( ALL ( Sales[ItemCode] ), "@Amt", [Sum of Net Sales Value] ) 
VAR
Result = RANK ( DENSE, SourceTable, ORDERBY ([@Amt], DESC) )
VAR
_Table = ADDCOLUMNS ( ALL ( Sales[ItemCode] ), "@tank", RANKX ( ALL ( Sales[ItemCode] ), [Sum of Net Sales Value],, DESC, DENSE))
VAR
_DisCount = DISTINCTCOUNT(_Table'[2tank])
RETURN
Result & " OF TOTAL " &_DisCount

Hi @Amrselim1989 

Normal aggregation functions do not work with variable tables. You need to use x-aggegator. Try


VAR _DisCount =
MAXX ( _Table, [@Rank] )
