    I have found the solution for this.

     

    here is the piece of code in the DAX code which caused issue.

    before fixing: 

     

            CALCULATETABLE(
                VALUES(Sales[Customer ID]),
                FILTER(
                    ALL(Sales),
                    Sales[Purchase Date] >= _DateBeforeNDays & Sales[Purchase Date] <= _EndOfMonthDate
                )
            )

     

     

    After fixing: 

            CALCULATETABLE(
                VALUES(Sales[Customer ID]),
                FILTER(
                    ALL(Sales),
                    Sales[Purchase Date] >= _DateBeforeNDays && Sales[Purchase Date] <= _EndOfMonthDate
                )
            )

     why the error caused in the first place?

    --> if you see in the first code, instead of using && operator I was just using & operator. and that was the only reason for the error.
