Year week in Power BI

Hello,

 

I would like to get concatenated year week in table visual in Power BI. Having column Week number. I got this result:

Analitika_0-1653378844666.png

Seems year week is unsorted. I used this formula to for column Year week. 

Year_week = FORMAT('Date'[Date],"YYYY") & "-" &'Date'[Week Number]
Week Number = WEEKNUM('Date'[Date],1).
 
How to resolve this issue by making ascending order year_week?

Hi @Analitika,

You can add a calculated column to extract the year and week number value from the date to concatenate and convert to numeric, then these values can be sorted by ASC/DESC order on your visuals.

YearWeek =
YEAR ( 'Table'[Date] ) * 100
    + WEEKNUM ( 'Table'[Date], 2 )

Regards,

Hello,

 

I would like to ask how I can sort ascending column which is constructed from year and week. I am getting year week column but sorting is not as in normal case. For example,

Year_week = FORMAT('Date'[Date],"YYYY") & "-" &'Date'[Week Number]
Week Number = WEEKNUM('Date'[Date],1)
Formulaes.
