Hi all,
I have a measure that divides two other measures by each other. This measure works great, I am able to visualize it. Now, I want to create an average of this measure. First, I created the measure by doing = AVERAGEX('_measures', [MeasureName]). This seems to be accepted into the data model and I do not get any errors. However, when trying to visualize this in a line graph, I get the following error:
"Couldn't load the data for this visual
MdxScript(Model) (34, 55) Calcuation error in measure '_measures'[MeasureName]: Table '_measures' cannot be used in computations because it does not have any columns."
What is odd to me is I am able to use other measures in this line graph; it's just this specific AVERAGE() one that is throwing me an error. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
