Hi @Anonymous ,

According to your description, here's my solution, create a column.

Column =
VAR _firstweek =
    7 - WEEKDAY ( DATE ( [Year], 1, 1 ) ) + 1
VAR _between = ( [Week] - 1 ) * 7
VAR _lastweek =
    SWITCH (
        [WeekDay],
        "Monday", 1,
        "Tuesday", 2,
        "Wedsday", 3,
        "Thursday", 4,
        "Friday", 5,
        "Saturday", 6,
        "Sunday", 7
    )
RETURN
    DATE ( [Year], 1, 1 ) + _firstweek + _between + _lastweek

Get the correct result:

@Anonymous 

So instead of variables, you can use the columns in it. Please let me know if you find any issues.

Sample data is 

Week  WeekDay Year Req_Result

41       Tuesday   2022       11/10/2023(DD_MM_YYYY)

 

@Anonymous 
I have created a measure as follows. Maybe this can help you to reach what you need.

SelectedDate =
VAR DateTable =
    CALENDARAUTO ()
VAR WeekNumber = 41
VAR WeekDayValue = "Tuesday"
VAR YearValue = 2023
RETURN
    MINX (
        FILTER (
            DateTable,
            FORMAT ( [Date], "dddd" ) = WeekDayValue
                && WEEKNUM ( [Date] ) = WeekNumber
                && YEAR ( [Date] ) = YearValue
        ),
        [Date]
    )
