Hi team,
I have a date in the 2017-01-01 format. I wanted to convert it into 201701 (week number 1 of the year 2017)
I have used the formula
Week Number = YEAR( Calendar(date) ) & WEEK( Calendar(date) )
and the result I get is 20171
I need it to be exactly 201701. How should I procceed?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I'd do it in this manner.
Week Number =
INT (
CONCATENATE (
YEAR ( 'Calendar'[Date] ),
FORMAT ( WEEKNUM ('Calendar'[Date] ), "00" )
)
)

wow, apparently there were tons of options for this scenario. Thank you everyone for your help. This option ended up being the most complete and yet simple
Let's keep it going! 😄
YearMo = YEAR(Calendar(Date)) & RIGHT("0" & WEEK(Calendar(date)), 2)
@konstantinosIts good to see you back on here ![]()
@ChihiroI should have thought of that shortcut - I like it ![]()
I actually use something similar for a Month Order Column
Month Order = VALUE ( FORMAT ( 'Calendar'[Date], "YYYYMM" ) )
@AnonymousI believe you were in a hurry to post... ![]()
Week Number =
INT (
YEAR ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
& RIGHT ( "0" & WEEKNUM ( 'Calendar'[Date] ), 2 )
) @jfernand Take your pick! ![]()
Here is a simplier one
Week Number = YEAR(Calendar(date)) & FORMAT(WEEK(Calendar(date)), "00")
=FORMAT(Calendar[Date], "YYYYMM")
This should work... ![]()
Week Number =
INT (
CONCATENATE (
YEAR ( 'Calendar'[Date] ),
CONCATENATE (
IF ( WEEKNUM ( 'Calendar'[Date] ) < 10, "0", "" ),
WEEKNUM ( 'Calendar'[Date] )
)
)
)
