Hi  @aishak12  ,

 

Place a measure in the calculation column, and there is a high probability that Circular Dependency will appear. You can convert this calculation column into a measure.


For related documents, you can check the following link:

@aishak12 Not with that amount of information. The error tells you the columns/measures causing the circular dependency. Avoiding circular dependency errors in DAX - SQLBI
