Counting Employees by Week

How do I go about creating weekly measures? I'm trying to create a week over week table that shows our employees attendance during COVID-19? I've done this type of work before with month over month but weekly, I can't seem to get it figured out.

 

My measure is basically Employees = COUNTROWS('Employees'). I'd like to create counts of all employees week to week (my week starts Sunday.

 

Can someone please help 🙂

Thanks!

Try something like this:

Create a weeknumber column first, use that column to create the measure.

 

Weeknum column = WEEKNUM([Date of Creation],1)

Measure = CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),FILTER(ALL('Table'),SUMX(FILTER('Table',EARLIER('Table'[Weeknum])='Table'[Weeknum]),1)))

Use WEEKNUM then it should pretty much be like month to month.

Hi @seanpratt ,

 

More information will be helpful, can you give some sample data?

Do you have a date and employee table connected to your attendance table?
