Hi, @Anonymous 

 

Missing tables may cause the error message. I wonder if the data you get in Power BI is the same as the data in data source.  Please make sure you can get all data from the data source correctly.

 

Best Regards

Allan

can you confirm that each Excel file loads fine by itself, and that the key column does not contain NULLs ?

Can you please tell me how should I proceed?

Remove the rows with the Nulls, or replace the Nulls with some other value.

I have replaced all the null values with NA's but still, I am getting the same error.
