Dear Team,I'm new to Power BI, trying to figure out the issue.
I have a column named "Period Week" with data looks like 23.2024 means the 23th week of the year 2024
I wish to convert it a regular date in M code.
I tried chatGPT for help but I'm getting cyclic error each time
maybe you can help ? what would be the right way to do this ?
Solved! Go to Solution.
and try this code in power query
[
parts = Text.Split([Week Year], "."),
weekNum = Number.FromText(parts{0}),
yearNum = Number.FromText(parts{1}),
startOfYear = #date(yearNum, 1, 1),
dayOfWeek = Date.DayOfWeek(startOfYear, Day.Sunday),
daysOffset = if dayOfWeek = 1 then 0 else 7 - dayOfWeek,
firstSunday = Date.AddDays(startOfYear, daysOffset),
weekStartDate = Date.AddDays(firstSunday, (weekNum - 1) * 7)
]
[weekStartDate]
Thank you, for your help and time

startOfYear = #date(yearNum, 1, 1),

firstSunday = Date.AddDays(startOfYear, daysOffset),
weekStartDate = Date.AddDays(firstSunday, (weekNum - 1) * 7)
]
[weekStartDate]
try code in Dax
startweek date =
VAR _s = SUBSTITUTE([Week Year],".","|")
var _year = PATHITEM(_s,2,INTEGER)
var _week = PATHITEM(_s,1,INTEGER)
VAR _date = DATE(_year,1,-2)-WEEKDAY(DATE(_year,1,3))+_week*7
RETURN
_date
I would add a new query with a list of all of the dates from your first year (let's say 2021) to the most recent year, so = List.Dates(#date(2021, 1, 1), Duration.TotalDays(Date.From(DateTime.LocalNow())-#date(2021, 1, 1)), 1)
Use the GUI option "To Table", name that column "Dates", and then add a column using the function each Date.WeekOfYear([Dates])
If you want to, group by Week, and choose the Max aggregation for [Dates].
Now you can return to your original query, split your [Period Week] column by ".", and make the types "Int64.Type" (whole number).
Now you can merge with your Dates query on Week Number and year.
