Hello @Revilo ,

 

To check what's the error, go to power query (Trasnform Data tab), and try clicking on each table to see where is the error comes from, and they will point you out to the table that has the error as well as which step is making the error.

Hi , did you check power queries , try to change the format of the columns that have null values and replace null to 0 maybe this will solve the issue
