Calculated Table Column Headers
Hi, I have a calculated table like this:
Now, the 2nd Last Week and Last Week names come from my code, where I specify these names so they are hard coded. I want them to instead represent the date they belong to. So, the column name for Latest Week should be 7-Apr-21 and for 2nd Last Week shoul be 31-Mar-21. For any other dates, a column will be blank so it is only going to show values for the week date it represents
I want it such that when I visualize the data the dates dynamically change as the weeks go by
Any ideas?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnAesWxYgJ8amitchandak I actually just want the week dates to show in the column headers instead of having the week dates in a column
WOW measures are great but won't work for me as my data has some gaps and does not have consecutive weeks, so some dates have a gap of 14 days
Hi, Anonymous
What you mean is that you want to be able to dynamically modify the column names according to the date?
Unfortunately this may be difficult to achieve through DAX, but this is not completely impossible to achieve,
it can be done by using M code in the power query, but unfortunately this forum is not a forum dedicated to discussing powerquery, I suggest you look for answers in the power query forum or create a New Message in the forum for help. This is all I can do, I hope this is useful to you
Here is the link to the power query forum:
