Need help creating week number
- 10 years ago
yes. I started out with serial number 2 as that is what I was told the program used. It turns out that our Navision uses ISO. I had created week numbers using serial number 2 but was able to correct the informaiton chaning it wo week serial number 21.
Happy to know I was not the only one using 2.
My understanding of the ISO week number system is that it begins in Monday and ends on Sunday, days 1-7. Do you want just the ISO week number? That would be:
= WEEKNUM([Date],2)
If you want the full ISO date as specified here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week_date
That would be (compact form):
= YEAR([Date]) & "W" & WEEKNUM([Date],2) & WEEKDAY([Date],2)
See WEEKNUM reference here: https://support.office.com/en-US/article/WEEKNUM-Function-DAX-e636ef36-180a-4e2d-a29b-8f549c258da0
- [Iso Week] = WEEKNUM([Date];21)
- [Iso Year] = IF( AND(WEEKNUM([Date];21) < 5;WEEKNUM([Date];2) > 50);[Year]+1;IF(AND(WEEKNUM([Date];21) > 50;WEEKNUM([Date];2) < 5);[Year]-1;[Year]))
- [Iso Year Week] = IF( AND(WEEKNUM([Date];21) < 5;WEEKNUM([Date];2) > 50);[Year]+1;IF(AND(WEEKNUM([Date];21) > 50;WEEKNUM([Date];2) < 5);[Year]-1;[Year])) & " week " & FORMAT(WEEKNUM([Date];21);"00")

Wild, learned something, I guess the documentation on WEEKNUM is incomplete, I couldn't find 21 as a valid argument anywhere for WEEKNUM but tried it and it works, and it does make a difference.
