    Thank you Angelia, I beleive I have it now.

     

    The problem was that I had to create a new column on my date table for "Weeks", then join the "Live Agent Created Date" field to that new column on the Date tab. Once I did that, it is now showing up correctly.

Thank you very much Brett, that new measure is now grouping the dates the way I want.  I am still doing something wrong though, if I add a visual table to look at the data, I group by the new measure I created.   "WeekStarting".  Then I created another measure to count the number of cases like so.

 

WeekGroup = CALCULATE(COUNT('Live Chat Transcript'[CaseId]),ALLEXCEPT(DateKey,DateKey[WeekStarting].[Date]))

 

Here is what I see....I think I have the count messed up somehow, it is not summarizing the number of cases by the new measure you gave me, it is totaling them.

 

 

 

Here is the way it looked before.

 

 

Thanks again! I appreciate any help you can provide here.

Can you check the direction of the date relationship?  I have mine set to "Both".
