I want to create a custom column by concatenating a few fields in my table using a DAX statement
Year
Month Number
Week of Year
Let's say I have the below values for each field
Year = 2018
Month Number = 3
Week of Year = 12
What I want is a value that would look like this: 20180312, where if either month number or week of year is a single digit, there is a leading 0 in front.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks
Solved! Go to Solution.
MyDate = CONCATENATE(CONCATENATE(YEAR([Date]),FORMAT(MONTH([Date]),"0#")),FORMAT(WEEKNUM([Date]),"0#"))
Add new column with following expression
Week = FORMAT(Table2[Year], "0000") & FORMAT(Table2[Month], "00") & FORMAT(Table2[Week], "00")
