Set default week date dimension in tabel

Hello Power BI community

I have trouble with calculating default week by using Isfiltered (im not sure this is the right way to do)

 

I want my data from my table show the lastest 10 weeks as default, however, I also allow users to use the Week Filter in the left corner and select weeks that earlier than the lastest 10 weeks.


This is my column week so far : 

Year-Week vis true = RIGHT(DIM_DATE[Year-Week vis],2)

Hi @Anonymous 

You can try to build an unrelated table to build the week slicer and build measures to calculate the value in matrix.

My Sample:

YearWeek is a caluclated column.

 

YearWeek = YEAR(Sales[Date])*100+WEEKNUM(Sales[Date],2)

Slicer table:

 

Table = VALUES(Sales[YearWeek])

 

Build a slicer by this table and build measures to calculate the value as below.

 

Value = 
VAR _SelectValue = VALUES('Table'[YearWeek])
VAR _CURRENTYearWeek = YEAR(TODAY())*100+WEEKNUM(TODAY(),2)
VAR _RESULT1 = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales]),FILTER(Sales,Sales[YearWeek] in _SelectValue))
VAR _RESULT2 = CALCULATE(SUM(Sales[Sales]),FILTER(Sales,Sales[YearWeek]>_CURRENTYearWeek-10))
RETURN
IF(ISFILTERED('Table'[YearWeek]),_RESULT1,_RESULT2)

 

Result:

By default my matrix will show values in last 10 weeks.

It can show the week I select in slicer as well.

You can create a week type in you table and use that. You can default on last 10 weeks

 

Week Type = Switch( True(),
[start week]<=Today() && [end date]>=Today()-70,"Last 10 Week" ,
[Week Name]
)

 

 

Other columns

 

Week Start = 'Date'[Date]+-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2)+1
Week End = 'Date'[Date]+ 7-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],2)
Week Number = WEEKNUM([Date],2)
Week = if('Date'[Week Number]<10,'Date'[Year]*10 & 'Date'[Week Number],'Date'[Year]&'Date'[Week Number])

Hello @amitchandak

Thanks you for your answer but this is not what im looking for :

KhanhTu_4-1623330471641.png

 

I want an output of every single week for the last 10 weeks like this below

KhanhTu_5-1623330533584.png

And still keep my week filtered if I needed to find weeks that further than last 10 weeks.
