Current Week versus Last Week Totals as a Bar Chart

[Anonymous]

Current Week 1/9/2022 - 1/15/2022

Last Week 1/2/2022 - 1/8/2022

Is it possible to show this as a bar chart ?

Hi,

The definition of a week itself is unclear.  For the year 2022, when will the week start from - January 1 or the first Monday of January?  If you can create a week number column in the Calendar table and share the download link of your PBI file, I can help.

Hi~ @Anonymous 
Please check the data type of the Order column.If it is in Text format, change it to Whole number format.Then check  the bar chart.

If the problem is not solved, please provide the error information, it will help me to find the problem, thank you very much!

Hi~ @Anonymous 

The problem is because of the data type of the data.

Please contrast the data type of the measures and columns. Hope it helps.

Hi @Anonymous ~

I created a sample:

Please try these measures:

Current Week = 
var __Today = TODAY()
var __WeekStartDate = __Today-WEEKDAY(__Today,1)+1
var __WeekEndDate = __WeekStartDate+6
return
CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),FILTER(ALL('Table'),__WeekStartDate<='Table'[Closed] && __WeekEndDate>='Table'[Closed]))

Last Week = 
var __Today = TODAY()
var __WeekStartDate = __Today-WEEKDAY(__Today,1)-6
var __WeekEndDate = __WeekStartDate+6
return
CALCULATE(COUNTROWS('Table'),FILTER(ALL('Table'),__WeekStartDate<='Table'[Closed] && __WeekEndDate>='Table'[Closed]))

create a table:

create a measure:

Measure Value = 
SWITCH(
SELECTEDVALUE('Table1'[order]),
1,[Current Week],
2,[Last Week]
)

Finally create a bar chart:

Hope it helps!

It look like the Closed (2022 Redwood Incidents) does not have Date associated with it. How can I resolve this issue?

@Anonymous , Create these new columns in date table

new columns
Week Start date = 'Date'[Date]+-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],1)+1
Week End date = 'Date'[Date]+ 7-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date],1)
Week Rank = RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Week Start date],,ASC,Dense)
OR
Week Rank = RANKX(all('Date'),'Date'[Year Week],,ASC,Dense) //YYYYWW format

Then try measures 

measures
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))
