    I intended it as a measure.

     

    The culprit is this statement:

     

    Business Day Value = if('Date'[DayOfWeek]="Monday"||
                            'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Tuesday"||
                            'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Wednesday"||
                            'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Thursday"||
                            'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Friday",
                            "1",
                            "0")

    This statement results in a string of either "1" or "0". Change this to:

    Business Day Value = if('Date'[DayOfWeek]="Monday"||
                        'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Tuesday"||
                        'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Wednesday"||
                        'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Thursday"||
                        'Date'[DayOfWeek]="Friday",
                        1,
                        0)

    and make sure that the Business Day Value column in your calendar table is of type Whole Number. That should do it.
