What is this error message and how to fix?

I keep getting this message as I try to create a new table either by trying to import an excel file or by entering in new data. dax1.PNG

@cdawidow , are you importing it as data ? what do mean by enter new data.

 

If you imported a table created in excel. make sure it exists

@cdawidow - Difficult to say, hate to say it but I would try rebooting. You could check the Issues forum here:

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues

And if it is not there, then you could post it.

If you have Pro account you could try to open a support ticket. If you have a Pro account it is free. Go to https://support.powerbi.com. Scroll down and click "CREATE SUPPORT TICKET".
