    Hi Alde , 

    I have created a simple sample, please refer to my pbix file to see if it helps you.

    Create a measure.

    Measure = IF(ISFILTERED('Table'[month])=TRUE(),FIRSTNONBLANK('Table'[value%],1),CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[value%]),'Table'[month]=SELECTEDVALUE('Table (2)'[date])))

     

    What cause your error?

    The following comparisons are not supported:

      1. Comparing to a column to a measure. SalesHeader[TerritoryID] = [LargestTerritory]
      2. Comparing a column to a an aggregate value. SalesHeader[TerritoryID] = MAX(TerritoryID[TerritoryID]])
      3. Comparing a column to a What-If parameter. SalesHeader[TerritoryID] =TerritoryParameter[TerritoryParameter Value]

    More details: DAX error: A function ‘XXXX’ has been used in a True/False expression that is used as a table filter expression. This is not allowed. 

     

    If I have misunderstood your meaning, please provide your pbi file without privacy information and your desired output.

Hi Anonymous 

 

Thanks for the sample, it did work until 2nd level of nested DAX,

 

When I tried this one, It doesn't work anymore at 3rd level while I'm trying to create a clustered stacked bar, but it works if I just use a value "Value" instead of SELECTEDVALUE().

 

Do you have any idea? 🥹 

Thank youuuuuu

BUD_OB2 = 
SUMX('Col_Type',
VAR CurrentType = 'Col_Type'[Col_Type]
    Return if
        (CurrentType="OB YEAR BUDGET",
        if (ISFILTERED('ORDER_TABLE'[MONTH])=truE(), FIRSTNONBLANK('FCST_BUD'[OB (start of month) BUD FY 42],1),
        CALCULATE(Sum('FCST_BUD'[OB (start of month) bud FY 42]), 'FCST_BUD'[Month] = SELECTEDVALUE(Col_Type[CurrentMonth]))
            )
        )
    )

Ahh, I also tried assigning a variable the value using SELECTEDVALUE() function and using it at third level, and changing back and forth of the nests, but still doesn't work unless it's a typed value,
