Error when doing a Measure with DirectQuery on Oracle 11g

I believe PowerBI has a incompatibility issue with Oracle 11g when using DirectQuery. 

 

I have the following Measure setup:
Total Sales = CALCULATE(
SUM(TableA[Sales]);
FILTER(ALLSELECTED(TableA);TableA[Date] >= AVERAGE(StoreTable[StartingDate]))
)

 

It is meant to calculate sales only after the store has started operating (before opening the store the client does some dummy sales which enter the database)

 

But I get the following error:
ORA-00904: "t0"."StartingDate": invalid identifier. The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface.

 

I have setup the relationship between TableA and StoreTable on [Store_Code] column, and I have tested a smaller sample using import method and the same calculation works. 

 

Is there something I can do besides creating a view with all the columns I need on one big table?

@alexlopesBS,


This should be a same issue which is mentioned in this thread, please check product team's response from that thread.

Actually, it doesn't work even if I put the column StartingDate in the same table. Guess I can't use this on the visualization
