Error while using CalculateTable()

Hi All,

I am trying to use CalculateTable DAX but getting following error

"The expression refers to multiple columns. Multiple columns cannot be converted to a scalar value."

Can Anyone tell me where I am doing wrong.

Hi @community_pinki ,

 

According to your description,

 

1. If you want to filter a table by a measure,you may try:

Measure = IF(MAX('Table'[Column]) <= 73, 1,0)

And then apply it to visual-level filter ,set as "is 1" as shown below:

2. If you want to return a calculated table, you could try:

New table = FILTER('Table',[Column]<=73)

create a new table.PNG

 

3. Just use visual-level filter——is less than or equal to:

@community_pinki , Create a new table not measure. Calculatetable returns a table
