DAX issues

Hi

 

How to resolve below DAX Query issue.

 

ProjectRisk =  IF([max]=2 , "off Track"

                      IF([max]=1 || project[budgethourtilldate]-project[actualhours]<0

                                       || project[free resource]>0, "At risk" , " on track" ))

 

Getting " A circular dependency was detected: project[projectrisk],[project[freeresource], project[projectrisk]

 

Thanks

Hi kunuthuri,

 

Please check if project[freesource] is a calculate column which also depends on project[projectrisk] and other columns.

For details, you can refer to https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/avoiding-circular-dependency-errors-in-dax/.

HI @Anonymous

 

Is your 'project'[free resource] a calculated column?
