Week number with 2 digits

Hi,

 

The weeknum formula returns the weeks 1 to 9 as single digits. Is there a way to display these as 2 digits, e.g. 01, 02....09?

 

Thanks!

Looks like I've managed to solve this myself Smiley Happy

 

I used the DAX Formula " weeknumber = FORMAT(WEEKNUM([date],1),"00")  "

 

If anyone has any other better solutions, please feel free to contribute.

If you are doing it in Power Query - M Code then this is what I would use:

 

if Date.WeekOfYear([DATE]) < 10 then "0" & Number.ToText(Date.WeekOfYear([DATE])) else Number.ToText(Date.WeekOfYear([DATE]))

If your week numbers are stored as whole numbers, then:

format(if(WEEKNUM([date]<10,CONCATENATE(0,WEEKNUM([date]),WEEKNUM([date]),00)

 

that is,

 

format (<value>, <format_string>) where  

<value> = if(WEEKNUM([date]<10,CONCATENATE(0,WEEKNUM([date]),WEEKNUM([date]

and

<format_string> = 00

You could go with additional custom column (based on your formula):

 

 

date = FORMAT(DATE(LEFT([Year-Month],4),RIGHT([Year-Month],2),1),"yyyy-mm")

hi, @afk

 

This is correct.

But you could do this directly in POWER QUERY, with a similar formula, removing the calculation from the tip.
Or use a CALENDAR table for this and standardize the dates of your dashboard.

 

Please try and test using it. And please mark the right reply as answer if your issue has been resolved, otherwise, please feel free to ask if you have any other issue.
