That message tells you that you are using the exact same object twice or more in a WHERE/JOIN clause and you MUST use an alias name on each instance IF you really need to use that same object multiple times in the WHERE/JOIN's as shown here for example: https://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/1588361/FROM-clause-have-the-same-exposed-names-Reportbuilder
