I am trying to use this for creating a new measure which takes in Tasks from Sprints that are closed and the summing it up with Issue Keys for those

TASK_COMPLETED = IF(Sprint_Master[SPRINT_REPORT_STATUS]=="COMPLETED" && Sprint_Master[ISSUE_TYPE_NAME]=="Task", CALCULATE(Count(Sprint_Master[ISSUE_KEY])))

I am getting circular dependency error mentioned above (A circular dependency was detected: Sprint_Master[TASK_COMPLETED], Sprint_Master[STORY_COMPLETED], Sprint_Master[TASK_COMPLETED].)

Hi  @JeevanMallya ,

The circular dependency error you’re encountering is likely due to the fact that your measure is referencing itself or another measure () that in turn references . This creates a loop that Power BI cannot resolve.TASK_COMPLETEDSTORY_COMPLETEDTASK_COMPLETED

To fix this, you need to ensure that your measures do not directly or indirectly reference themselves. 

Best regards.

Indeed. Fixed it
