    Item count previous week =
    CALCULATE (
    DISTINCTCOUNT ( [ITEM Number] ),

Hi, Anonymous 

Thank you for your message.

Please try something like the below, that one more condition is added.

 

Item count previous week =
VAR currentyear =
YEAR ( TODAY () )
RETURN
CALCULATE (
DISTINCTCOUNT ( [ITEM Number] ),
FILTER (
'Table',
WEEKNUM ( 'Table'[Close Date], 1 )
= WEEKNUM ( TODAY (), 1 ) - 1
&& YEAR ( 'Table'[Close Date] ) = currentyear
)
)
