Hi everone

My DAX code above is not working. Somehow I couldn't run this code I made in power Query. I don't know where is the mistake.

I want to group according to the CallOffID field in the table I have. Afterwards, CallOffID is repeated in some lines and there is a ChangeNumber corresponding to each CallOffID. These start from 1 and progress upwards. I want to capture the largest number in this ChangeNumber field and list the DeliveryDate next to this number. But it didn't work. I will be glad if you can help.

 

 

"Expression.Error: The name 'MaxChangeNumberTable' wasn't recognized. Make sure it's spelled correctly."

 

 

It gives this error message

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

In Power Query, the code we use is M language. We use DAX language in Power BI Desktop. Attempting to run the DAX language in Power Query will certainly not succeed.

Quick tour - PowerQuery M | Microsoft Learn

M or DAX? That is the Question! - RADACAD
