    Anonymous,

     

    Is your table like this?

    I created a measure but didn't meet the error:

    Measure 2 = 
VAR x = 
COUNTX(
    FILTER(
        Sheet9,
        [Status] = 2
    ),
    [Status]
)
VAR y = 
COUNTAX(
    Sheet9,
    Sheet9[Status POT]
)
RETURN
DIVIDE(
    y,
    x
)

    The error is very strange.

     

    Why did you add filters on this visual?


    Maybe you can remove the filters , then, try it again.

if you get 1, maybe you just do not define Decimal places parameter as it need?
