Week Number Not Returning Week 1 In New Year
- 8 months ago
Hi L1102,
Oh ok let's give it some corrections touch..here is the corrected DAX formula that should work for your fiscal calendar (May 1 start, Thursday week start):
Fiscal Week Corrected = VAR CurrentDate = 'Sobeys Promo Calendar'[Promo Week Start Date] VAR CurrentYear = YEAR(CurrentDate) VAR May1Current = DATE(CurrentYear, 5, 1) VAR May1Previous = DATE(CurrentYear - 1, 5, 1) // Find first Thursday of May for current year VAR FirstThursdayCurrent = May1Current + SWITCH( WEEKDAY(May1Current, 2), 1, 3, // Monday -> Thursday is +3 days 2, 2, // Tuesday -> Thursday is +2 days 3, 1, // Wednesday -> Thursday is +1 day 4, 0, // Thursday -> no change 5, 6, // Friday -> next Thursday is +6 days 6, 5, // Saturday -> next Thursday is +5 days 7, 4 // Sunday -> next Thursday is +4 days ) // Find first Thursday of May for previous year VAR FirstThursdayPrevious = May1Previous + SWITCH( WEEKDAY(May1Previous, 2), 1, 3, 2, 2, 3, 1, 4, 0, 5, 6, 6, 5, 7, 4 ) // Determine which fiscal year the date belongs to VAR FiscalYearStart = IF( CurrentDate >= FirstThursdayCurrent, FirstThursdayCurrent, FirstThursdayPrevious ) // Calculate days difference VAR DaysDiff = CurrentDate - FiscalYearStart // Calculate week number VAR WeekNum = INT(DaysDiff / 7) + 1 RETURN WeekNumIf the above still has issues, try this version that ensures a full 7 day week calculation:
Fiscal Week Fixed = VAR CurrentDate = 'Sobeys Promo Calendar'[Promo Week Start Date] VAR CurrentYear = YEAR(CurrentDate) // Create May 1 dates for current and previous years VAR May1Current = DATE(CurrentYear, 5, 1) VAR May1Previous = DATE(CurrentYear - 1, 5, 1) // Function to find first Thursday VAR GetFirstThursday = VAR BaseDate = May1Current VAR DayNum = WEEKDAY(BaseDate, 2) VAR DaysToAdd = SWITCH( DayNum, 1, 3, // Monday -> Thursday 2, 2, // Tuesday -> Thursday 3, 1, // Wednesday -> Thursday 4, 0, // Thursday 5, 6, // Friday -> next week 6, 5, // Saturday -> next week 7, 4 // Sunday -> next week ) RETURN BaseDate + DaysToAdd VAR GetFirstThursdayPrevious = VAR BaseDate = May1Previous VAR DayNum = WEEKDAY(BaseDate, 2) VAR DaysToAdd = SWITCH( DayNum, 1, 3, 2, 2, 3, 1, 4, 0, 5, 6, 6, 5, 7, 4 ) RETURN BaseDate + DaysToAdd VAR FirstThursdayCurrent = GetFirstThursday VAR FirstThursdayPrevious = GetFirstThursdayPrevious // Determine correct fiscal year start VAR FiscalYearStart = IF( CurrentDate < FirstThursdayCurrent, FirstThursdayPrevious, FirstThursdayCurrent ) // Calculate week number ensuring it starts at 1 VAR WeekNumber = DIVIDE( CurrentDate - FiscalYearStart, 7, 0 // Returns 0 if error ) + 1 // Ensure week numbers are positive and within range RETURN IF( WeekNumber < 1, 52 + WeekNumber, // Handle rollover from previous year IF( WeekNumber > 52, WeekNumber - 52, // Handle overflow WeekNumber ) )if this post helps, then I would appreciate a thumbs up and mark it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.
Hi,
To fix it, compute:
The first Thursday of the year
The week number based on that first Thursday
FirstFiscalThursday =
VAR YearStart = DATE( YEAR('Date'[Date]), 1, 1 )
VAR DayOfWeek = WEEKDAY( YearStart, 2 ) -- Monday = 1 … Sunday = 7
VAR Offset = MOD( 4 - DayOfWeek, 7 ) -- 4 = Thursday
RETURN
YearStart + Offset
FiscalWeek =
1 +
QUOTIENT(
DATEDIFF( [FirstFiscalThursday], 'Date'[Date], DAY ),
7
)
These are the exact Microsoft Learn documentation pages for the functions used:
