Weeknum - weeks covering 9 days

Tajkment — Tue, 02 Jul 2024 13:44:15 GMT

Hi,

I have been putting together a custom financial year callendar, i have realised that the Weeknum dax is returning the same week number for the range of 9 days, is there a way to fix it?

Example below

Thank you in advance for any advice

Tajkment Don't use EDATE? You are using EDATE with a -6. This means that August 29th through 31st will all return a date of February 29th, which is 6 months back from August. Since February doesn't have a 30th or 31st, those will both return 29th of February or last date in February. So, probably not what you want.

Tajkment That would depend on what exactly you are trying to achieve. How is it supposed to work? When does your financial year start and end?

I am looking to generate an financial year callendar, The financial year runs from July to June, so i would get Financial Year,month, quarter, week, the week is starting on Monday,

The end goal is to use this one as a slicer, so the end users will be able to filter the visualisations by year / quarter / month / week

Tajkment How about this?

Column 3 = VAR __Date = [Date] VAR __StartDate = DATE( 2024, 7, 1 ) VAR __StartDay = WEEKDAY( __StartDate ) VAR __Result = COUNTROWS( FILTER( 'Calendar', [Date] <= __Date && [Date] >= __StartDate && WEEKDAY([Date]) = __StartDay ) ) RETURN __Result
