Power BI - SQL: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'. Incorrect syntax near ')' - tsql

Question

New to SQL and was given the query below to use in Power BI. It pulls the data table correctly on preview but fails when applying the change into Power BI Desktop. I don't know how to fix the syntax.
I get this error:
Power BI - SQL: Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'DECLARE'. Incorrect syntax near ')'.
Here is the query:

Power BI constructs a query like this:
select * from ( ... your query goes here ... ) as SourceQuery
So when it puts your query between the parenthesis, it isn't a valid query anymore. Power BI does that, because it needs to be able to add joins and filters to your query. Either rebuild the logic inside Power BI using M and DAX, or put your query in a view/UDF in the data source and select from it.
