Hi @Anonymous 

Try this

Measure = CONCATENATE("Update", MAX('Before'[Team]))

If that doesn't work please supply some sample data.

As you are creating a measure of the column containing multiple values, you are getting this error as it requires an aggregation on the column level.

 

Try creating a calculated column rather than a measure. This will fix your issue.

Can you be more elaborative about your issue?

It would help is you can explain using your data examples and screenshots.

 

Also, ss your initial issue of concatenating the two values- "Update" & Before [Team] column sorted?
