Time Intelligence - Comparing Day of Week
Hello Anonymous and TomMartens!
Thanks for your contributions, it helped me a lot.
I used both of your ideas to combine it with my own. Using the Index, I could create the comparisons within a certain date range.
For Easther though, I still need to create the date alignment differently, since it's a fixed date which I need to compare to my previous Easter (we have a 45 day calendar for this campaign), that's where a Dim_Calendar_Campaign helped me out. There I can fix the dates I want to compare (2017-04-16 x 2016-03-27), using the Index to indicate whether the date is in the actual year or in the previous year.

It's good to hear you got a solution.
