You cannot reference a "naked" column within a measure. In a measure there is no row context so the engine does not know what row you are referring to. Have a look at this and or this
I would also stick to always using fully qualified names for columns, i.e. TableName[ColumName] instead of just [ColumnName]. The latter is best reserved for referring to measures: [Measure]
