Converting a daily variable into a weekly variable

Hi,

 

At the moment I have a variable with daily granularity, however, I need to get track it on a weekly basis.

 

Is there any way to do this? Is there a way to add week in the Date Hierarchy?

 

 

Thanks in advance,

 

IC

@Anonymous  Yes, you can have a WeekStarting or WeekEnding date in the date hierarchy. 

For example, Considering Friday as WeekEndingDate of the business you can add a column to your date dimension as below in SQL.

 

case
when datepart(dw, date) = 7 then dateadd(day, 6, date)
else dateadd(day, 6 - datepart(dw, date), date)
end
