Hi Toast36
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
A special thanks to dufoq3 for responding on this topic.It looks like the issue arises from a cyclic reference when filtering the InventoryDimension table using the Sales table.
Try buffering the Sales table before using it for filtering:let
Source = Sql.Database("sql1.database.windows.net", "db1", [CommandTimeout=#duration(0, 5, 0, 0)]),
Sales = Table.Buffer(Source{[Schema="RPT", Item="Sales"]}[Data]),
InventoryDimension = Source{[Schema="RPT", Item="InventoryDimension"]}[Data],
SalesKeys = List.Distinct(Sales[Inventory Dimension Key]),
FilteredInventory = Table.SelectRows(InventoryDimension, each List.Contains(SalesKeys, [Inventory Dimension Key]))
in
FilteredInventory

So, you should provide samle data with full description of your issue. Don't forget to provide also expected result.
This is the code that is being used
Parallel running is disabled so the 500 Sales Table should run first. I want the 600 Inventory table to only show inventory items where there is a corresponding sale record as we have 11million inventory items which are not all relevant to the sales invoices
