Aggregate Formulas with Multiple Tables

Aggregate Formulas with Multiple Tables

I get a 'Communications link failure...last packet successfully received..." error when trying to create an Aggregate formula that references two separate tables. 

I've made sure they are connected properly. 

It almost seems like it might be timing out? 

Any insights into the logic of what is allowed/not when creating Aggregate formulas that reference multiple tables would be appreciated!
