Hi @Anonymous ,

 

According to the above error, it is due to the wrong syntax format used in power query, I did the following test:

if [Date] >= Date.FromText("2019-12-29") and [Date] <= Date.FromText("2020-01-04") then "Week1 2019" else if [Date] >= Date.FromText("2020-01-05") and [Date] <= Date.FromText("2020-01-11") then "Week2 2020" else "week3 2020"
