Week number wrong

Hey all,

 

I have a big problem!
For where I work, the weeks start on a Monday, but as you can see below it's wrong.

For the Wk32 it should show values from the 8th to14th.

The columns Month, week number and date are columns from a calendar table that comes from a database.

When I add, week start date calculated column, it shows the wrong the result as well.

Here is what I'm using for the calculated column.

WeekStartDate = '🔎Calendar'[Date]- WEEKDAY('🔎Calendar'[Date],2)+1//week starts on Monday

What do I need to do for my week to show the correct dates?
How can I make sure the week number 01 starts on 3/01/2022?

Thanks very much!

Hi @ROG ,

According to your description, the week num of the year should starts at a weekday.

Here's my solution, create a calculated column.

Week Number =
WEEKNUM ( [Date], 2 )
    - IF ( WEEKDAY ( STARTOFYEAR ( 'Calendar'[Date] ), 2 ) IN { 6, 7 }, 1, 0 )

Both the week number and week start date get correct result.

@ROG WEEKNUM(..., 2) has weeks starting on Monday. 

WEEKNUM function (DAX) - DAX | Microsoft Docs

Also WEEKDAY is similar
