Helper Ilast week count not working properly
I have a date table which formulates all the dates for given field.
Now i have a field which says- task end date through which i calculate last week tasks- for some reason total tasks are coming exact but not exact when go for individual category.
In power BI its coming as :
The last week tasks are counted using :
This measure- Total_tasks_filterd is working perfect when counting all rows for last week :
I am not sure why this is happening, i am not able to debug. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks!

Have these new columns in Date Table, Week Rank is Important in Date/Week Table
Week Rank = RANKX('Date','Date'[Week Start date],,ASC,Dense)
OR
Week Rank = RANKX('Date','Date'[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format
These measures can help
This Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])))
Last Week = CALCULATE(sum('Table'[Qty]), FILTER(ALL('Date'),'Date'[Week Rank]=max('Date'[Week Rank])-1))Power BI — Week on Week and WTD

Hi , This week rank is not working out for me, now even the overall number is not coming correct!

Your MaxWeekNumber calculation needs to be corrected to calculate the proper max week of the prior year ( for current week =1 )

Dwivedi15 In response to your private message. One thing I noticed immediately is that in your Date table, you only have 6 dates for last week (7/2/2023). Looks like you are missing Saturday the 8th. Perhaps this is causing some of your problem?

Hi greg,
PBIX- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1faZg-lGf7mCdmayB3VfHwrg9-VeW1_Rn/view?usp=sharing
Excel for just last week: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E3NAOYTqcfqmQSDpNEYI-ykK3U8AsS0v/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=109892159618108648816&rtpof=true&sd=true
If you see here indiviual count of tasks are not coming correct but overall is coming right. Also total aborts works just fine.
REally cant understand why !!!?
