You cannot index a calculation filed that references a Related Field, a Global Field, a Summary Field or an unstored calculation in it's formula.

However if you really need to do it there are work arounds:

1. Turn the calculation field into a regular field and populate it through scripting;

2. Have a script copy it's value to another field.

Good luck
