Hello All,
I am trying to compare Compare a week data to prior week's data - Week data may be less than 7 days, so need to compare the same number of days.
Data has 4 days in week 23.
Need to compare to the first 4 days in week 22
Getting the following error on my Max Week Day
Many thanks for your suggestions.
Open to other ways to do it.
Thanks,
Pav
Solved! Go to Solution.
I typically add columns to the date dimension YearsFromToday, MonthsFromToday, DaysFromToday, etc.
Negative is in the past, 0 is the current, positive is the future.
I have access to the DB views, but you can do this in Transform as well. See example, you could also have a "WeeksFromToday"
Then your DAX becomes stupid simple, to use your example:
Sale Count Week 1 = Calculate(Sale_count, DaysFromToday > -7 && DaysFromToday <= 0)
Sale Count Week 2 = Calculate(Sale_count, DaysFromToday > -14 && DaysFromToday <= -7)
....
Or better yet, leave sale count as it is and just apply a filter to the KPI or visual (unless you want to combine different weeks on different lines or etc on the same viz) Then you don't need a new measure for every week.
