Forecast WOW and change rate in different versions

Hi there

I just need some help in creating two measures ( WOW forecast per each forecast version,  change rate% for the same week in different forecast version

 

Statement

 On a weekly basis, I receive a forecast version with the upcoming 12 weeks and for the next week, I receive another version of 12 weeks but we drop the oldest week and add a new week to that version, etc.

Support needed

1- create a dax to calculate the previous week's forecast &WOW%  ( but within the same version)

2- Create a nother dax to calculate the change rate for the same week but in the different versions

Example

If week 46 repeats in 3 versions ( v-43 , V-44, V-45,V-46 ) i need to know the change rate trend line :

- (Week 46 in V-44  -  Week 46 in V-43 ) / Week 46 in V-43 

-Then  (Week 46 in V-45  -  Week 46 in V-44 ) / Week 46 in V-44  etc.

 

3- I have a date table connected to the fact table as well ( ISO week based )

4- As you may notice that the weeks forecast repeat in differrent versions, so do you see that keep them in one fact table or create a dim table for the week version? if so does this will cause any issue with the calendar date interms of filter and any other issues?

@Khalefa , with help from week rank on week start date or year week you can create week measures

 

Week Rank = RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Week Start date],,ASC,Dense)
OR
Week Rank RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format
WeekDay = weekday([Date])

 

 

These measures can help
This Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])))

 

Last Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])-1))

 

2nd Last Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])-2))
