Hi anoomohan,

The Number and Multiple arguments must have the same sign (+/-).
Please check the CALCULATE(SUM('BEFORE TRANSFER'[Value]), 'DATE'[Year]=2023) part of [2023 SALES B4] for negative numbers.

Use MROUND ( number, SIGN ( number ) * multiple ) if the the sign of the number is not known in advance:

2023 SALES B4 =
VAR __m = CALCULATE(SUM('BEFORE TRANSFER'[Value]), 'DATE'[Year]=2023)
VAR __result = MROUND(__m,SIGN(__m)*1000)
RETURN
__result

Below are the 3 measures used in same report - but no error for 2nd and 3rd, not sure why only the first one shows error - 
 
2023 SALES B4 = MROUND(CALCULATE(SUM('BEFORE TRANSFER'[Value]), 'DATE'[Year]=2023),1000)
 
2024 TGT AFT TR = MROUND(CALCULATE(SUM('AFTER TRANSFER'[Value]), 'DATE'[Year] = 2024),1000)
 
2024 TGT B4 TR = MROUND(CALCULATE(SUM('BEFORE TRANSFER'[Value]), 'DATE'[Year] = 2024),1000)

It seems your measure [2023 Sales B4] has an issue when you use the MROUND function. check the parameter value you have sed there. Here is the guide: MROUND function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Learn
