arithmetic operation error

if i use below measure in table visual then i am getting below error . i am usng direct query

if i remove distinctcount() from measure then it works fine and does not give any error . is there any alternative for implementing this measure to avoid this error?

Total orders offline =
CALCULATE(DISTINCTCOUNT('ORDERS'[ORDER_NUMBER]),FILTER(PRODUCT,
PRODUCT[CategoryType]="Offline"))

@powerbiexpert22 ,  Try using below 

 

Total orders offline =
SUMX(
    VALUES('ORDERS'[ORDER_NUMBER]),
    IF(
        CALCULATE(
            COUNTROWS(PRODUCT),
            PRODUCT[CategoryType] = "Offline"
        ) > 0,
        1,
        0
    )
)
