How to create a new table with a measure

Hello!

 

I have a calculated column N from table BN and a measure X. X is calculated from table BN. If I use visual, choose table, and use BN and X as columns, it can be shown as a table. Now I hope to create a new table in the model in which one column is BN and the other one is X.

 

NewTable=summarize(BN, N, "x",X)

 

However it always gives me an error which says X is variant data type. Should make X a contant data type. But X is defined as decimal . Someone can help me? please !

 

If I use visual, choose table, and use BN and X as columns, it can be shown as a table.

@Anonymous , This error comes when you use if or switch and the datatype is different then and else

 

example

 

if(Max(Table[Col])="1", 1, "2")

 

here one is number and another one is text, so it will give an error
