Error cannot convert value of type text to type true false

HI answeriver ,
- First thing is try to use DIVIDE dax function to do your calculation.
- Break-down your measure to variables
- I think the sytax error is on your ALLEXCEPT function. You have closed the bracket for this function too early.
Your syntax error is somehwere in this part of DAX:
ALLEXCEPT(
REPORT_IMS, 'REPORT_IMS'[CITY], REPORT_IMS[REGION (groups)], REPORT_IMS[VISIT MONTH]
), // you have closed the ALLEXCEPT clause hereREPORT_IMS[VISIT YEAR],'Attributes','Attributes'[type contract] // this is the line with error I guess
Question for you: What you are trying to achieve here with the line of code above?
You will have to correct your DAX something like this:
= CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT(REPORT_IMS[SALEPOINT CODE]) ) / CALCULATE( DISTINCTCOUNT(REPORT_IMS[SALEPOINT CODE]), ALLEXCEPT( REPORT_IMS, 'REPORT_IMS'[CITY], REPORT_IMS[REGION (groups)], REPORT_IMS[VISIT MONTH], REPORT_IMS[VISIT YEAR] ), ALLEXCEPT( 'Attributes','Attributes'[type contract] ) )Check if the above DAX works. Make sure to write your DAX as clean as possible - specially the closing and opening brackets.

HI answeriver ,
Please create a new thread for this if this is something different to the syntax error issue that you raised.
