Expression.Error: The name 'CALCULATE' wasn't recognized. Make sure it's spelled correctly.

So, what am I doing wrong here?

I used this solution and I am now getting the error " The following syntax error occurred during parsing: Invalid token, Line 1, Offset 161, [Project #))))."

This is my code: 

Column = CALCULATE( COUNTROWS('2021 & 2022 Bids'), FILTER( '2021 & 2022 Bids', '2021 & 2022 Bids'[Project Number] = EARLIER('2021 & 2022 Data from Marketing'[Project #)))

What can I do?

That error suggests that you are writing the formula in the Query Editor.  You should be writing this as a calculated column formula.

In Query Editor you should be use Power Query Language. 

Calculate is part of DAX. (to create a measure or calculated column after you load the data model)

Hi @Anonymous,

As Vvelarde has mentioned above, you should use Power Query (informally known as "M") Formula in Query Editor.

The formula you're using should work when creating a calculate column or a measure under Modeling tab in Power BI Desktop.
