New measure : what am I doing wrong?

Hi all, 

 

I created a measure such as : 

 
# patients = calculate(counta(Patient[Id]), year(Patient[CreationDate])=2020)
it works nicely and counts the number of new patients in 2020. 
 
however, I have another measure such as : 
Year report = 2020 
 
I'd like to remplace my # patients by : 
# patients = calculate(counta(Patient[Id]), year(Patient[CreationDate])=Year report)
 
but it doesn't work. Why? What do I have to change so it works? 
 
Thanks in advance, 
 
Ana

# patients =

var y = [Year report]

return calculate(counta(Patient[Id]), year(Patient[CreationDate])=y)
