Help with Query has exceeded available sources error

[BaldAccountant]

I am trying to run the following measure in a visual and I am getting the Query has exceeded the available resources message.

Here is the measure:

Current Units PVM =

SWITCH(Selected[PVM Selected Current],

"Current",[Cases],

"Current YTD",TOTALYTD([Cases],Dates[Date]),

"Prior YTD",CALCULATE(TOTALYTD([Cases],Dates[Date]),SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(Dates[Date])),

"YTD Avg",DIVIDE(TOTALYTD([Cases],Dates[Date]),MONTH(MAX(Dates[Date])),0),0)

I am only getting the error message when I choose the "YTD Avg" option.  The others work fine.

Hi, @BaldAccountant 

Thanks for AnkitaaMishra's reply. The issue occurs when a visual has attempted to query too much data for the server to complete the result with the available resources.

As suggested in the error, you may need to try filtering the visual to reduce the amount of data in the result currently. there is limit. Apply data-point limits and strategies by visual type 

And you can follow the tips to optimize your report：

1.Do not expose in a view a column that is not necessary in the Power BI data model.

2.Optimize the DAX calculation used in this visual to use less memory and return faster or change what the visual displays.

3.Remove unnecessary precision or split granularity values to reduce cardinality(Significantly reduce highly unique datetime values by splitting the date and time into separate columns. )

If it helps any, I use this measure in a half dozen other measures to get to a PVM analysis.  If I put all of those measures in a table visual it gives me this error, and it runs fine for Current period and the YTD, but not for the YTD average.   If I take some of the measures off, this calcuation and other remaining measures calculate just fine.

Hi @BaldAccountant , 
Try creating base measures and then use it in your SWITCH statement. 
Example : Create a measure for :
_TotalYTD = TOTALYTD([Cases],Dates[Date])
Then modify the switch statement as : 

Current Units PVM =

SWITCH(Selected[PVM Selected Current],

"Current",[Cases],

"Current YTD",_TotalYTD,

"Prior YTD",CALCULATE(_TotalYTD,SAMEPERIODLASTYEAR(Dates[Date])),

"YTD Avg",DIVIDE(_TotalYTD,MONTH(MAX(Dates[Date])),0),0)
