Display Friday's date in all the rows of a column.

Hi,

Below is the table I'm working on, to which I'm to add another column that will display the Friday's date of the week in all its rows.

 

Date                Day   

12/5/2019      Sun   

13/5/2019      Mon        

14/5/2019      Tue

15/5/2019      Thurs

16/5/2019      Fri

17/5/2019      sat

 

I expect as the following output:

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You can create columns using DAX below.

 

Day = SWITCH(WEEKDAY(Table1[Date],2),1,"Mon",2,"Tue",3,"Wed",4,"Thur",5,"Fri",6,"Sat",7,"Sun")

 

WEEKNUM = WEEKNUM(Table1[Date],2)

 

Rank = RANKX(Table1,Table1[Date],,ASC)

 

Expected Output = var d6=CALCULATE(MAX(Table1[Date]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Rank]=EARLIER(Table1[Rank])+6))

                 var d5=CALCULATE(MAX(Table1[Date]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[Rank]=EARLIER(Table1[Rank])+5))

                 return IF(WEEKDAY(Table1[Date],2)=6, d6,IF(WEEKDAY(Table1[Date],2)=7,d5,CALCULATE(SUM(Table1[Date]),FILTER(Table1,Table1[WEEKNUM]=EARLIER(Table1[WEEKNUM])&&WEEKDAY(Table1[Date],2)=5))))

Hi Amy,

Any way to recreate your solution by a DAX measure instead of a DAX column?
I have a similar need but rather instead of dates from a table, the base date would be TODAY().
Thanks.

Nevermind, I seem to have figured it out:

WeekEndDate = TODAY() - WEEKDAY(TODAY(),2) + 5
