Hi everyone!
I have some doubts to create a dynamic calendar from my data.
- Is it possible to create a Master calendar only with year and week of the year?
- How could I create a column with the "month" using the week of the year?
My data are like that:
Thanks!

Hi @Anonymous,
Would you please elaborate what does Dynamic Calendar mean?
According to the two question, I created a date table via below steps. Please review it to see whether it is acceptable.
Create a new table named as Master Calendar from your source data table.
Master Calendar= SELECTCOLUMNS ( 'Data Table', "Year", 'Data Table'[Year], "Week", 'Data Table'[Week] )
Create a date table with continual date values. And add three calculated columns [Year Column], [Month Column] and [Week Column].
Dim Table = CALENDAR ( DATE ( 2007, 1, 1 ), DATE ( 2008, 12, 31 ) )
Year Column = 'Dim Table'[Date].[Year]
Month Column = 'Dim Table'[Date].[MonthNo]
Week Column = WEEKNUM('Dim Table'[Date])
Summarize the above table 'Dim Table'.
Dim Table 2 =
SUMMARIZE (
'Dim Table',
'Dim Table'[Year Column],
'Dim Table'[Week Column],
"Month Column", LASTNONBLANK ( 'Dim Table'[Month Column], 1 )
)Then, in Master Calendar table, create a calculated column to display Month value.
Month =
LOOKUPVALUE (
'Dim Table 2'[Month Column],
'Dim Table 2'[Year Column], 'Master Calendar'[Year],
'Dim Table 2'[Week Column], 'Master Calendar'[Week]
)
If I have something misunderstood, please correct me and provide more detailed description.

Thanks for your help @v-yulgu-msft,
I have probed your solution and works fine.
When I said Dynamic Calendar I refer to a table that depend of my data. Starting with the oldest date of my data and finishing with the most recent.
