Latest 52, 26, 13, 4 weeks

[Anonymous]

Hello! 

I am in need of some help. I am currently trying to add a drop down filter that would allow me to filter my report pages by the latest 52, 26, 13, and 4 weeks. I know there is the option to do this with relative dates, but I am hoping to create an actual measure / column with this four options. Essentially, I am trying to do something similar to current week offset, but instead of having my end user select 0 to -3 to get the latest 4 weeks and want them to be able to just select "Latest 4 week." I would also use this in tables as a row to show latest 52 week sales, units, etc. 

Any thoughts on how to pull this off?

Yes, you can do it as a column in the table where you look at the date and compare it to TODAY for instance or you can create a disconnected table with your options and do it as part of a measure. If you really want the last 52 weeks and such, it would be advisable to use Sequential - https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Quick-Measures-Gallery/Sequential/m-p/380231#M116
