Hi @chethan,

 

Pleaser refer to the following steps.

  1. Create a calendar table: 
    DateTable = CALENDAR(DATE(2015,1,1),DATE(2015,12,31))
  2. In this calendar table, add two calculated columns: 
    WeekDay = WEEKDAY(DateTable[Date],2)
  3. SaturdayInDateTable =
        DATEADD ( DateTable[Date], 6 - DateTable[WeekDay], DAY )
  4. In your source table, add two calculated columns: 
    Saturday =
        LOOKUPVALUE (
            DateTable[SaturdayInDateTable],
            DateTable[Date], 'WEEK-date'[Opened Date]
        )
    
    Week-Open =
        "WE  " & 'WEEK-date'[Saturday].[Day]
            & "-"
            & LEFT ( 'WEEK-date'[Saturday].[Month], 3 )
            & "-"
            & RIGHT ( 'WEEK-date'[Saturday].[Year], 2 )

 

If you still have any question, please feel free to ask.

Do you have a Date/Calendar dimension table with a Week Ending column (e.g. http://www.mattmasson.com/2014/02/creating-a-date-dimension-with-a-power-query-script/)that is linked to your data table?

 

If so, you can create "Week - Open" as a new column:

Week - Open = "WE " & FORMAT(RELATED(DimDate[Week Ending]), "dd-MMM-yyyy")

Note that I had problems with the "Week Ending" column in my DimDate table falling on a Sunday until I specifically set the start of week to Sunday per below (even though that's the default, and my locale is set OK):

WeekEnding = Table.AddColumn(#"YOUR PREVIOUS STEP", "Week Ending", 
        each Date.EndOfWeek([Date], Day.Sunday), type date)
