When editing a calculated field, the following error might occur:

The calculation contains errors: Reference to undefined field [field name]

  • The spelling of the field in the calculation differs from the spelling of the field in the data pane.
  • The name of the field was changed in the data source.
  • The data was recently pivoted and the field no longer exists because it became part of pivot field names.
  • The data source was recently replaced and the field not longer exists in the new data source or has a different name.
