Error fetching Data for this visual - Visual not displaying

Hi , I see similar issues where error is on SErvice and not desktop - we are the other way round

Our compnay don't do monthly updates but we have just updated from April24 to Oct 24 and a number of people are getting the error in subject with some visuals - which could be a red herring but worth mentioning.
On my chart error it showed on a line and bar chart - removing one of the measures solved the problem - which allowed me to see that it was related to that specific measure - however the measure causing the issues is a simple Divide of two other measures  - both of which display properly in a card visual. The divide measure also diplays the error message in a card .

 

The measure is :  %age Of ReqsAllowing Full LT = Divide([HasReq'dLT],[HasReq'dLT]+[NOT Req'd LT])  where both HasReq'dLT and Not Req'dLT   both calculate a result

Any thoughts on why we are now getting this error ( same moving to Oct 24)

Thanks for any help

It's not just me experiencing the error , a number of people in our company are, with completely different data sets.

It seems to be when 2 measues are in the same chart - if i put each of these measures into separate card visuals they display perfectly. Also when published to Service chart displays ok - just not in desktop - looks like we might be rolling back to April !!

Hi @GJD23 

 

Thank you very much dk_dk for your prompt reply.

 

I tested it under the same version and did not experience the same issues as you.

%age Of ReqsAllowing Full LT = 
var HasReq_dLT = SUM('Table'[HasReq])
var NOTReq_dLT = SUM('Table'[NOT Req])
RETURN
IF(
    (HasReq_dLT + NOTReq_dLT) = 0,
    0,  
    DIVIDE(HasReq_dLT, HasReq_dLT + NOTReq_dLT)
)

Measure = DIVIDE('Table'[HasReq'dLT], 'Table'[HasReq'dLT] + 'Table'[NOT Req'dLT], 0)

Try adding [HasReq'dLT]+[NOT Req'dLT] to the card to see if an error occurs.

 

Please provide sample data that fully covers your issue and the expected outcome based on the sample data you provided.

Are there any cases where [HasReq'dLT]+[NOT Req'd LT] evaluates to 0 across the axis that you want to display the measure on for your line / bar chart?

Could you try to update your divide function to: Divide([HasReq'dLT],[HasReq'dLT]+[NOT Req'd LT],0) and see if that fixes the error?
