You can create a measure like below and use it as filter on your visual.
_filter = IF ( AND ( WEEKNUM ( MAX ( 'Order/Forecast'[Date Required] ) ) = WEEKNUM ( TODAY () ), MAX ( 'Order/Forecast'[Order/Forecast] ) = "Forecast" ), 0, 1 )Output:-
Thanks,

Thanks for that.
For example this is my starting file
Date Required Order/Forecast Value 10/01/2022 Forecast 10 10/01/2022 Order 20 17/01/2022 Forecast 15 17/01/2022 Order 25 And I'd like to get to this:
Date Required Order/Forecast Value Date Created 10/01/2022 Order 20 10/01/2022 17/01/2022 Forecast 15 10/01/2022 17/01/2022 Order 25 10/01/2022 Is there a best way to do this when transforming the data? If yes how can I learn? Thanks
