I ended up restructing the formula that the data was pulling from as the two calculated columns contained different criteria. When I used one of the newly calculated columns, the formula worked.

Hi @DMB90 ,

 

This is a good blog on circular dependencies: https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/understanding-circular-dependencies/.

As a workaround, try measures instead of calculated columns.
