Then maybe the data changed and now you got a value that contains text and can't be converted to a number. Check all of the entries in the data source.

 

Also in the future add more information, with only an error message it's hard to help you.

They couldn't convert to Number

@selimovd 
This error did not show for 1 year. Also checked the power query there is no such problem in the conversion to Number.
