Hi @Anonymous ,

 

First make sure your date column has the correct data type, and then you can use the "WEEKDAY" function to return the number of the week.

 

weekdayNum = WEEKDAY('ReportTable'[Updated],2)

 

You can also use the "SWITCH" function to create a calculated column of weekday names.

 

weekdayName = SWITCH(ReportTable[weekdayNum], 1, "Mon", 2, "Tue", 3, "Wed", 4, "Thu"  
               , 5, "Fri", 6, "Sat", 7, "Sun" , "Unknown number" ) 

 

 

 

Best Regards,

Liang
