The Date Selection code you showed is supposed to be a table, not a column in your date table. you need to go to Modeling Tab > New Table and Paste.
However, you can refer to the below video and adjust as per your need.

Thanks Fowmy. I tried the DAX in table instead of column but still showing #ERROR. Any idea how we can fix this ?
Periods Selection =
VAR LatestDate = MAX('Calendar'[Date])
VAR YearStart = calculate(STARTOFYEAR('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending]),YEAR('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending])= YEAR(LatestDate))
VAR L12Start = CALCULATE(LASTDATE('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending])-84)
VAR L4Start = CALCULATE(LASTDATE('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending])-28)
var LWStart = CALCULATE(LASTDATE('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending])-7)
VAR L52Start = CALCULATE(LASTDATE('ATLAS_Retail Sales'[Week Ending])-365)
VAR Result =
UNION(
ADDCOLUMNS(
CALENDAR(YearStart, LatestDate),
"Selection","YTD"
),
ADDCOLUMNS(
CALENDAR(L12Start, LatestDate),
"Selection","L12"
),
ADDCOLUMNS(
CALENDAR(L4Start, LatestDate),
"Selection","L4"
),
ADDCOLUMNS(
CALENDAR(LWStart, LatestDate),
"Selection","LW"
),
ADDCOLUMNS(
CALENDAR(L52Start, LatestDate),
"Selection","L52"
)
)
RETURN
Result
