Hi Everyone,
Relatively new to PBI and I am attempting to create a sales dashboard using the last 52 week sales data by week, and I need to provide visibility into the sales data separated into a "Pre" and "Post" group of weeks based on a user defined week. This allows leadership to view how products performed leading up to, and then following a planogram change at the store level.
One challenge is that my weeks are deisgnated as YYYYWW, not in a dates table. ie. 202101-2020152 would be my week range for calnedar year 2021. This column is formated as a text column.
Any insight or help on how to build this visualization would be appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous ,
Do you want to display the data of 202102 and 202104 when you select 202103?
If so, you need to create a new table, and then use the following measure.
Measure =
CALCULATE(
SUM('Table'[Sales]),
FILTER(
'Table',
'Table'[Week] in { MAX('WeekNum'[Week]) - 1, MAX('WeekNum'[Week]) + 1 }
)
)
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,

@Anonymous , what you want to compare is not clear. We have move year week, year and week into a new table (say Date)
and we can create week rank and these measures are possible
Week Rank = RANKX(all("Date"),"Date"[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format
measures
This Week = CALCULATE(sum("order"[Qty]), FILTER(ALL("Date"),"Date"[Week Rank]=max("Date"[Week Rank])))
Last Week = CALCULATE(sum("order"[Qty]), FILTER(ALL("Date"),"Date"[Week Rank]=max("Date"[Week Rank])-1))
Last year Week= CALCULATE(sum("order"[Qty]), FILTER(ALL("Date"),"Date"[Week Rank]=(max("Date"[Week Rank]) -52)))
YTD= CALCULATE(sum("order"[Qty]), FILTER(ALL("Date"),"Date"[Year]=max("Date"[Year]) && "Date"[Week] <= Max("Date"[Week]) ))
LYTD = CALCULATE(sum("order"[Qty]), FILTER(ALL("Date"),"Date"[Year]=max("Date"[Year])-1 && "Date"[Week] <= Max("Date"[Week])))
