Hi,
I'm new to DAX and need some help, I'm creating a measure in a tabular cube in SSAS. I need to retreive the LastYearLastWeek data from x column:
LastYearLastWeek:= CALCULATE([x], FILTER(ALL(Time), Time[WeekNumber] = SELECTEDVALUE(Time[WeekNumber]) -1 && Time[Year] = SELECTEDVALUE(Time[Year])-1))
But I get this error in the syntax: comparison operations don't support comparing values type Text with Values of Type Number. Considering using VALUE or FORMAT functions to convert one of the values.
Fields used: WeekNumber and Year from Time table are whole numbers.
It doesn't really make sense to me, any tips on how to fix it?
Also maybe there is a better way to get LastWeekLastYear, do you know of any?
Thanks

Hi @Anonymous ,
Since the error pointed out that it was a data type issue, could you double check the data type of Time[WeekNumber] and Time[Year] columns? Or, if the expression works with "VALUE" function, the data type of the two columns is indeed text.
LastYearLastWeek :=
CALCULATE (
[x],
FILTER (
ALL ( Time ),
Time[WeekNumber]
= VALUE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Time[WeekNumber] ) ) - 1
&& Time[Year]
= VALUE ( SELECTEDVALUE ( Time[Year] ) ) - 1
)
)
Then, is [x] a column or a measure? If it is a column, it may need to use SUM, MAX, etc, functions with [x].
