This is because you are throwing it into a chart. It has to be a calculation then. An aggregation or a min or max. But be aware though. When you plot it a sum in a chart the calculation is dependent on what you have on the x-axis (unless you use ALL() in your calculation).

 

Maybe you can provide some more context, so I can help you out.

 

Best,

Martin,

 

I'm having the same problem. Why does displaying it in a chart require a calculation? Is there no simple way to visually display things in a chart without this calculation? We are simply trying to plot x and y, it should be that simple.

      aaditya2000,

       

      You may add an index column in Query Editor and drag that to shared axis field.
