Previous Week calculation from selected date in slicer

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a date colun in the slicer, I need to calculate Previous week from the dates selected in the slicer.

Explanation : When the user selects the date range from the slicer below, the card "backlog from previous week" card should display count( previous week from the slicer selected date range )

Thanks in advance

@Anonymous , refer if Week Rank method can help

Have these new columns in Date Table, Week Rank is Important in Date/Week Table

Week Rank = RANKX('Date','Date'[Week Start date],,ASC,Dense)
OR
Week Rank = RANKX('Date','Date'[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format

These measures can help
This Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])))
Last Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])-1))
