    Hi Sub,

     

    I think you forget to write the measure name, right?

     

    Sample:

     

    Column/Measure Name= SUMX(SUMMARIZE
(
    'powerbi vgb_melding';
    'powerbi vgb_melding'[aanvangdatum];
    "Meldingen"; SUM('powerbi vgb_melding'[aangemaaktid] )
),[Meldingen])

Hello v-shex-msft,

 

Thanks for the suggestion, but when I use your function it returns an error: "To use special characters in a measure name, enclose the entire name in brackets ( [] ) and add a ] to any closing brackets in the name." I've looked everywhere, but the brackets are there and none are missing as it seems.
