    You are digging in the wrong location. When to stop repeating? That brings you back to the original problem of ranking using the correct granularity. This is an infinite loop and will lead to nowhere.

    The issue is that your business logic wasn't clarified so I had to guess. You can achieve this using

    day_rank =
RANKX (
    'Calendar',
    'Calendar'[Date] - WEEKDAY ( 'Calendar'[Date], 2 ),
    ASC,
    DENSE
)

Hello Anonymous , if you are looking to only sort, then use the following added column

Week sort = FORMAT(Calendar[Date],"yyyyww")
