    Would something like this serve? I am assuming that the source data has a [Fiscal Week Ends] column, not a hire date. 

    Last 2 Weeks New =


    var currentweek = [Fiscal Week Num]

    var previousweek = [Fiscal Week Num]-1
    var currentweekhires = 
    CALCULATE( 
                       SUM(
                                   'Terms & Hires SQL'[Net Hires]),
                                [Fiscal Week End]=currentweek

    var previousweekhires = 
    CALCULATE( 
                       SUM(
                                   'Terms & Hires SQL'[Net Hires]),
                                [Fiscal Week End]=previousweek

     

     

    return

    currentweekhires+previousweekhires

Anonymous Could you please provide the output you want from your measure as it may not be clear exactly what you are trying to achieve?  What is the output you want for the Last 2 Weeks New column in your image?

 

Thanks heaps,

Theo
