Prashant - To evaluate a function within a set expression you need to enclose the expressions in $(= )

so  = Max([Year of date])-1  will not work,  $(= Max([Year of date])-1 ) is correct. 

Assuming that the field [Year of date] is numeric, there is no need to enclose the set modifier value in quotes.


The error is due to the brackets not matching in the second modifier for Calendar Date

There is a missing bracket

=num(sum( {$<[Year of date]={$(=Max([Year of date])-1) }, [Calendar date]={"<$(=Date(AddYear(Today(),-1)) ) "}>} recharge_amount),'# ##0')

Could be anyone of these?

=num(sum( {$<[Year of date]={$(=Max([Year of date])-1)},[Calendar date]={"<$(=Date(AddYears(Today(),-1)))"}>} recharge_amount),'# ##0')

OR

=num(sum( {$<[Year of date]={'$(=Date(Max([Year of date])-1))'},[Calendar date]={"<$(=Date(AddYears(Today(),-1)))"}>} recharge_amount),'# ##0')
