This Week vs Last Week
- Anonymous9 years ago
Hi guys,
Thanks for thereplies.
Yes v-caliao-msft, you are correct there is no function to find date in current week which is pretty annoying.
That said, I turned to power query and just added a new column with those existing methods:
Date.IsInCurrentWeek
Date.IsInPreviousWeek

In Power query, there is Date.IsInCurrentWeek functin that returns a logical value indicating whether the given Date/DateTime/DateTimeZone occurred during the current week, as determined by the current date and time on the system.
To check if the date is in previous week, there is no such a function to achieve this directly. You need to return the week number and previous week number, and check if the week number=previous week number. We can use Date.WeekOfYear function in Power query to get the week number.
